Priceline - "Name Your Price" Function For Hotels BUYER BEWARE!! Priceline does not guarantee a discounted rate. Internet

   I agree that the OP doesn't really have much to complain about.  If you bid $180 and the bid was accepted, you got what you asked for.

"paying the FULL standard price for a hotel that I do not like..."

  This is what I find baffling about this "name your price" business.  The bidder has no idea what he is bidding on until after the bid is accepted.   Who does this?  

  I'm thinking of starting a website where I sell people cars.  After they hand over the money, I tell them what kind of car they bought.

Lets see.  you bid 180.00 for 2 nights in May 2010.  They accepted your bid, and you found out that was the standard rate??????

you should have gone on line to find out what the standard rate for the hotel was before you bid 180.00.  If you had done this you could have gotten it for 90.00 or maybe less.

Dont blame priceline because you are stupid!!!!!
