zenock Posted April 2, 2009 Report Posted April 2, 2009 I'm new to Priceline, but well informed now thanks to this site! Last night I made the following bids (and free re-bids) for a 3.5*:1st $602nd $693rd $75I came back tonight and rebid $80. I was unsuccessful again, but this time got to a special screen that said that I could rebid without changing any details other than increasing the price "by at least $22". I tried a smaller increase ($90 bid) to see what happened and they rejected it. I didn't want to pay the suggested $102, so I just started again, this time including Civic Center for a free rebid.I bid $85 and to my suprise this time it accepted it, and I got the Hyatt at Fishermans Wharf which was the 3.5* I'd hoped to win. Number of Rooms: 2Number of Nights: 2Subtotal: $340.00Taxes andService Fees: $62.78Total Charges: $402.78 Thanks to all who have contributed to the wealth of information on this site. I'm looking forward to bidding now for Jersey City, and Washington D.C.!
