thereuare Posted April 29, 2003 Report Posted April 29, 2003 Thanks for posting and welcome to BetterBidding!Can you just clarify if your bid was $42 +$10Bonus = $52 or $52 +$10Bonus = $62Thanks again for sharing your results.

alt438 Posted April 29, 2003 Report Posted April 29, 2003 It is clear from the post the the amount Paid by azri is 416/8=52$ hence his bid was 52+10$. I do suspect, however, that he could have get it with a bid of 47+10$.This is calculated from the tax he paid (Tax=13.0%) Calculation ---- ((59.28/8)/13)*100=57$ (47+10)

So $52 or $51 is the lowest possible for my trips. ( 8 nights ).$47 is good for people who wants to stay less than 5 night. I already knew it was $57 before I bid. :)
bturner13 Posted April 29, 2003 Report Posted April 29, 2003 Azri, please be kind enough to clarify, "Well, it's only up to $50. So $52 or $51 is the lowest possible for my trips. ( 8 nights ).$47 is good for people who wants to stay less than 5 night. I already knew it was $57 before I bid."Tks! :)
azri Posted April 29, 2003 Author Report Posted April 29, 2003 I'm not sure which part you want me to clarify. I'll try my best.Bonus Link is only $10/nights up to 5 nights.. so the maximum you can use only $50I know it's $57 after read some winning bid over TOBB. Based on tax calculation, I figure PL paid $57/night.For my trip, I require 8 night so 57*8 = 456 - 50 (max ) = 406 / 8 = $50.75, I figure I can bid at $51/night, it could save me another $8 buck. at 52/night, It's very good price for me.If anyone wants to go there for less than 5 night ( maximum ), I guess you should bid $47/night + $10 bonus money.
azri Posted April 30, 2003 Author Report Posted April 30, 2003 Thanks, I'm slow but trainable! :) That's why we have this kind of forum. :)
