thereuare Posted July 14, 2008 Report Share Posted July 14, 2008 Only way to find out for certain if it's too early is to give it a try :)At the 4* level you have four re-bid zones avaialble. If you're not familiar with re-bidding please read Priceline Re-Bidding Explained and feel free to ask questions and/or confirm your re-bid zones with the board before proceeding.(NOTE: 're-bid zone1' is not the same as priceline's Zone1, 're-bid zone2' is not the same as priceline's Zone2, etc, etc)Select USE and USW...Bid $65, if rejected add re-bid zone1...Bid $70, if rejected add re-bid zone2...Bid $75, if rejected add re-bid zone3...Bid $80, if rejected close browser and use our link to re-access PRICELINESelect USE and USW and re-bid zone4...Bid $85, if rejected add re-bid zone1...Bid $90, if rejected add re-bid zone2...Bid $95, if rejected add re-bid zone3...Bid $100Any questions feel free to ask.Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.Good luck and let us know how it goes.

thereuare Posted July 14, 2008 Report Share Posted July 14, 2008 Yes, you need to wait 24 hours since your last rejected bid, then you can repeat the above.Thank you for using our PRICELINE links to begin your bidding :)Keep us updated and let us know if we can be of further help along the way.

Colfax Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 You can bid every 24 hours but for a stay three months away you might not get anything for awhile. Bidding every 3 or 4 days ought to be enough, or even once a week....unless you enjoy bidding every day. Link to comment
