thereuare Posted June 23, 2004 Report Share Posted June 23, 2004 How much more are you willing to pay to stay in the FQ vs. the CBD? Or is price more important than location and either will do?

texaslonghornfan Posted June 23, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2004 Sorry, price is most important. $80 max. Thanks! Link to comment
thereuare Posted June 23, 2004 Report Share Posted June 23, 2004 This is how i would proceed:Select 4* FQ and...Bid $45 if rejected close browser and go back to Priceline by whatever method you used prior.Select 4* CBD and...Bid $45, if rejected add re-bid zone and...Bid $50, if rejected add re-bid zone and...Bid $55, if rejected add re-bid zone and...Bid $60I could present another strategy that is a bit more complex and would enable you to start at $45 and go up to $80, but given so much time before your stay i don't think it's necessary and i don't think i'd bid as high as $80 right now (although rates seem a bit high... is there an event/football game in town that you know of which would cause higher than usual demand?)
