katie, maybe you can expand on what makes these unique. Several of us have commented on the first offering and we haven't been able to see how the Antigua trip really differs from so many other auction items.

Hi Mountie,

Sure - Take the Galley Bay for example. Currently on our site we onlyoffer Buy Now packages for the Galley Bay. However, in The RomanceEvent, we are offering an Auction with a much lower starting bid pricethan any of those Buy Nows currently running on our site. We're also very excitedabout The NYC Event, which will run offers for The Plaza. This is aproperty that we very rarely (if ever) have auctions or Buy Nowpackages live for.

Those are just two examples, but basically all of these packages are unique for thesepromotional Events. None of these packages have ever run on our sitebefore, and it's very likely that you won't see them again.

Hope that helps a bit.

Thanks for the explanation, Katie. Mountie and I, and I'm sure others, were wondering how these packages differed from non-Mastercard packages. Looks like you put together some great packages!

[travel2fun]

k, has Master Card done any additional promotions beyond the advertisingbanners on your web site? I have a Master Card and just received my monthly invoice and see NOTHING promoting this buying opportunity. DidMC miss the boat on this one?

Thanks for clarifying this, Katie -- looking forward to seeing more detail on the upcoming packages in Venice and New York!

Travel2Fun -- your MasterCard is issued by a bank, not directly by MasterCard directly (this is why you can have multiple MCs, issued by different banks). This probably explains why your MasterCard statement doesn't say anything about this promotion, as it's being run by MasterCard directly. On the other hand, there may be rewards programmes or promotions run by your bank in connection with the card issued by them which are not related to MasterCard.
