partyof6 Posted October 12, 2009 Report Posted October 12, 2009 I have been a big fan of betterbidding.com. I was finally able to use this site and thought I would post my 1st win. First off, I did use the PRICELINE link from this site! I offered $95 for a 5* North Strip Vicinity. I needed 2 rooms for 11/26-28. It was rejected but asked if I would accept $128 BUT I would need to act fast. Through this site I felt good knowing that the hotel would be either the Trump, Venetian or Wynn-all of which are awesome. So I decided to go for it and accept the counter offer. Ta-da- it went through and it was The Trump Hotel! So why am I not so thrilled ...I just found out that Trump Hotel is a non-gaming hotel. WHAT?? A slight bummer but I'm sure it'll all work out. Thank you betterbidding, you gave me the courage to try Priceline. Now the question I have is how can I try to get 2 queen beds or any upgrades?
thereuare Posted October 12, 2009 Report Posted October 12, 2009 Welcome to BetterBidding!Congratualtions on your win. You can call the hotel now and put in a request for a room with two beds and/or ask again at check-in. As well, you can also try Tipping the Front Desk at check-in to perhaps improve your chances.For future bidding, be aware that you can often under-cut PRICELINE's counter-offer by using re-bid zones (Priceline Re-Bidding Explained) as explained in this Priceline Suggests Price to Pay thread. Feel free to ask any questions you may have.Thank you for sharing your win with the board and using our PRICELINE link to begin your bidding.Enjoy your stay.
