I will always check the winning bid web sites before making a res. I am finding more often that I will reserve on the chains web site and get the benes as most places I do not see much difference. Two recent exceptions were:
Radisson at JFK for one nite, $40 less on Priceline and I still got Gold reward points;
Regal Kowloon one nite $65 less than spg, Marriott, Hilton etc.
