thereuare Posted February 1, 2005 Report Posted February 1, 2005 Thanks for the reported win.It's usually not recommended to lower your star rating and raise your bid at the same time as it can often result in an overbid. You can read more about the reasons behind this here: If You Lower Your Star Rating Then Lower Your Priceline.If you've never bid an area before you may want to ask for help and we'll be happy to supply a bidding strategy for you to follow.Enjoy your stay.

Jshappy Posted February 3, 2005 Author Report Posted February 3, 2005 Could you please give me bidding strategy for this zone as I will use it frequently. I really wanted the Crowne Plaza (BH adjacent). Thanks so much for your help. Unfortunately there wasn't too much time for a rebid.
thereuare Posted February 3, 2005 Report Posted February 3, 2005 There is no blanket strategy for any zone... prices change, re-bid zones change, upgrades/downgrades, etc, etc.Just post your dates next time/each time you have an upcoming stay.
