duckfan Posted December 15, 2009 Report Posted December 15, 2009 Through the PRICELINE link above:I first bid $40 for a 3.5 star in the Portland Airport area and the response I got was that if I increased my price by $12 then I would have a chance of getting a room, which is a response I have never received before. Usually it asks to also include another area, but this time it did not require that, or even ask me to include another area.I agreed and increased the price to $52 and received the Sheraton Portland Airport which we are very happy with.
thereuare Posted December 15, 2009 Report Posted December 15, 2009 Congratulations on your success!Glad to see you're happy with the results and this will work well for your plans.The offer to raise your bid by a certain amount and try again immediately is what we refer to as a counter-offer, and then can usually be undercut by using re-bid zones. See these threads for further information on either subject: Priceline Counter Offer and Priceline Re-Bidding Explained.Thank you for sharing your win with the board and using our PRICELINE link to begin your bidding.Enjoy your stay.
