jandjr Posted October 28, 2004 Report Posted October 28, 2004 i am looking for some bidding help i started bidding at $75 and went to $89 for the resort. casa marina is listed at 268 wyndam key west is 209. I started bidding at $70 for 3* and went to $79. doubletree grand key west is listed at $143 and crowne plaza key west la concha is listed at $270. I have a cancellable reservation for $95. Is it too early to be bidding and am i low balling my bids for key west. Thanx in advance for any advice or suggestions

jandjr Posted October 28, 2004 Author Report Posted October 28, 2004 we have reservations at a small hotel recommended by my friends called la te da
thereuare Posted October 28, 2004 Report Posted October 28, 2004 I think your rate may be tough to beat, but i would just keep trying (once a week or two... no need to bid this every 72 hours) until you reach the point at which you can no longer cancel your existing back-up reservation. If the above property is a back-up and you would really rather stay elsewhere (or at a chain or bigger property) then we can suggest a bidding strategy which goes higher than your back-up reservation... but based upon current prices i dont' think you'll do better than $95/nite.Any further questions let us know... and please keep us posted.
