    How do YOU now keep track of past auction results when getting ready to bid?

    Now the the past auction results are gone, how do you keep track of them? I don't know about you, but before bidding on any package, I would research it rather thoroughly and check past results. But now that is impossible since LL eliminated this fine feature for its bidders.



    There are a few packages I'd like to follow so I put them into my account as favorites. I'd like to be able to keep track of the outcomes but we all have busy lives, and often the auction ends without me knowing the result.



    Do you still try to keep track of the results on your own? If so, what method works for you? Do you now diary auction deadlines on your calendar to check them before they end? I've tried doing that, but often at the moment it ends, I'm busy at work and don't have the time to break away at that very moment.



    Does anybody have a method for keeping up with the results of auctions you want to follow?



    Thanks in advance!

    Just write down the properties of interest and track them as they are sold. You have the ability to do thatwithin your account. That's the system I use.

    Re: How do YOU now keep track of past auction results when getting ready to bid?

    I do add them to my account but maybe I'm not doing it correctly to make it easy to track them. I've added them to the list of auctions I'm watching, but the auctions expire without me noting it unless I check it everyday and remember to come back just when the auction ends.



    Is there another feature in my account that I should be using for this? That would alert me right before an auction ends? Or some other way to see the results if I can't break away from a work meeting at the moment the auction ends?



    Thanks!

    Sorry, I don't know who determines a "solution" but I sure don't see one here....at least not yet.



    Who determined this was a solution? And have they tried it to see if it works? How does that give you the final auction results.....just adding them in your account to watch it doesn't even notify you right before the auction ends. I've tried that. Perhaps I'm missing something.

    Re: How do YOU now keep track of past auction results when getting ready to bid?

    jmbklj, I am extremely low tech and still use a lot of pencils and paper in accomplishing my objectives. All I was attempting to do was share with you the approach I use to get some idea of prior selling prices of specific auctions in which I had or have an interest. I am not offering or suggesting this approach as the genral solutions. One thing is certain, the staff at LL will not be posting the prior auction information, as in the past, since it caused conflicts withsome of their hotels.

    Just now we REALLY find we have a true solution. LL has brought back the past auction results. This is a real solution. Thanks LL!

    This was a wise move on the part of LuxuryLink to restore this information.



    Thanks.
