Generall Priceline Question
Ok, I would like to book my hotel in Chicago through priceline.
Just all that talk about FREE rebids and so made me wonder.
I looked through that priceline site now pretty closely, and could not find an answer to that:
If I bet on a hotel, and justdont get what I want, maybe because I am not willing to go higher than I do, do I still have to pay a fee?
My plan is bidding on a 4* within a certain range,if I dont get it, get a 3*, but when I am like at 55 dollars,Idont want to lowerthe class and end up paying 55 dollars for a threestar that I could have gottenfor say 40.
Thanks

You only pay the $6 priceline fee if your bid is accepted. If it is not accepted, you don't pay anything.

Great, thank you, hehehe, lets start the dice rolling. Before I found this site here I thought about the youth hostel, now I am thinking Hilton, lol

Priceline might not accept your European credit card, may be Amexco.
When you go to 3 stars, you can lower also your price.
