russianscissors Posted October 29, 2008 Report Posted October 29, 2008 Started bid with $60 4Star downtown, was rejected and they offered that if I raise price by $17 would reconsider OR I could pick a different zone (which was my orginal plan and didnt know PRICELINE did that)Bid $77 and was accepted!!!!!SOOOOOO HAPPY!!!
thereuare Posted October 29, 2008 Report Posted October 29, 2008 Welcome to BetterBidding!Congratulations on your win and thank you for sharing your results with the board. Your original topic title only included "downtown" and since i don't believe there is a Renaissance in downtown Philadelphia i have added "Pittsburgh" to your topic title... can you confirm that this is correct?PRICELINE suggesting your raise your price is what we refer to as a counter-offer and if you have re-bid zones available (Priceline Re-Bidding Explained) they can often be undercut, as discussed in this Priceline Counter-Offer thread.Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.Enjoy your stay.

russianscissors Posted October 29, 2008 Author Report Posted October 29, 2008 Yes, it is Pittsburgh that the hotel I got from priceline. I was not expecting priceline to offer me that, I guess I hadn't read everything on this message board. I was expecting to just pick another zone which was my plan then bid just a little bit lower, but I was slighty nervous. Next time I will stick to my guns!
