I originally placed the Tracker in the thread initiated by CruisingChick on April 23, 2018.  However, the tracker gets lost amongst all the many questions/comments (understandably).  Thus, I have decided to create a single thread for tracking purposes only (filtering out everything else).  

The purpose of this thread is strictly for compiling information into a spreadsheet.   I will be running this tracker for ~ 6 months to see if any interesting trends come about and/or for general information purposes.  Will reevaluate its usefulness thereafter.

I was totally shocked to win this one, since this cabin was still available at 14Kpp  the day before I placed the bid. Also shocked that they accepted the bid so quickly. Great room and we loved it, but too much for just two people.

General Comments  Bidding did not open until 10 day prior to sailing, I checked in via email 20 and 15 days prior to sailing and received responses it was not yet open.  Only had options to bid for Royal and Penthouse due to current cabin,  RS mim was $1,000 PP, PH was $1,100 PP.  Suites have been sold out/closed for 3 weeks.  Not worth a bid of that price for only 3 days.  Don't recall inital cost of those suites, but SS was $650, CC was $850 so the bid for a RS is a big jump, PH is probably still more than original price when added to what we've already paid.

There were no sunset verandas available when we booked. That was our preference. The minimum bid was $50pp. Yesterday, I received notice that my IV MoveUp bid had been canceled and a few hours later got the credit card notification then the email from Celebrity about our new room assignment.
