An auction site that claims to have name brand luxury hotels for over 90% off the retail price. First of all they make you PAY for the right to BID on them in an auction style format. When you think you have finally 'won' they reset the clock to allow more people to bid. They charge about $1 to your credit card every time you click the bid button. You could buy at priceline.com hotel stays for 50% off and bid on it 50 times. You'd end up paying $60 more for the hotel stay! The whole site is just absurd. It is fun looking and it puts on this 'game' type of atmosphere to grab as much money from you as possibile!
Think about it. If 20-40 people are paying for the RIGHT to bid on the hotel stays, they will make their money for that item and then some! You are paying much more for the hotels which you normally don't have to pay and get frequent stay credits. Off and Away makes you pay higher price and don't give you any discount and frequent stay credits.
It is a rip off.
