LadyBug50 Posted September 19, 2004 Report Posted September 19, 2004 After a $50 rejection with no free rebids (unless I missed something) and after the lock-out period, bidding $71, then rejected again with no counter offers, the third time was a charm, but more $$ than we wanted to bid. The offer the 3rd time was $85 with a counter offer of $22 more. They would not accept less than the $22 counter offer. There may be something going on in the Wharf area that wkend.Sheraton At Fishermans Wharf Check-In Date: Saturday, October 2, 2004 Check-Out Date: Sunday, October 3, 2004 Fisherman's Wharf2500 Mason Street San Francisco, California 94133 415-362-5500Check-In Date: Sat, Oct 2, 2004 Check-Out Date: Sun, Oct 3, 2004 Your Offer Price: $107.00 Number of Rooms: 1 Number of Nights: 1 Subtotal: $107.00 Taxes & Service Fees: $21.02 Total Charges: $128.02
bbbb Posted September 19, 2004 Report Posted September 19, 2004 Did you try to under cut the counter offer with a free rebid between $85 and $107?I have never seen a time where you could not get it for less then the counter offer.
thereuare Posted September 19, 2004 Report Posted September 19, 2004 LadyBug, nice to see you around the board again and continuing your (not so new anymore) Priceline ways.When Priceline gives you the opportunity to bid again immediately without changing it is contingent upon you raising by the amount stated. Trying to not change anything and bidding lower than they require will result in the duplicate bid screen.However, you did have one re-bid available at the 3* level which you could have used. If you ever need help with how to figure out your re-bid zones feel free to ask.Enjoy your stay.

LadyBug50 Posted September 20, 2004 Author Report Posted September 20, 2004 Okay............So how would I have proceded once I got the counter offer?
thereuare Posted September 20, 2004 Report Posted September 20, 2004 You add the one re-bid zone available and increase your bid by less than they 'suggest'. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
LadyBug50 Posted September 23, 2004 Author Report Posted September 23, 2004 Thanks thereuare and BBBB, but by overlooking the free rebid, I thought I was stuck paying the counter offer. Next time I'll try and be more observant. :)
thereuare Posted September 23, 2004 Report Posted September 23, 2004 Or just confirm your re-bid zones (the number of them) with the board. :)We're here to help. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
