Priceline and their bidding option??

Question

I was wondering if anyone has ever used Pricelines' bidding option? Can you share your stories, good or bad. Thanks a ton

Answer 1

I have used it for hotels with much success.

I have not used it for flights because of the

"anytime between 6 AM and 10 PM" condition -

that's a little too wide open for me.

If you can live with the restrictions (such as

that one, and no changes or backing out),

it's a great way to save a bunch of money.

Answer 2

it works. just bid real low and if it goes through then great. if not bit alittle more to see if it goes through. but remember to start out bidding real low so you will find the lowest spot for your bid, and you dont bid 2 high right off the bat. if you offter a high bid right away you will never know if you could have got it any cheaper
