The low bid was $350 or so and the high bid was $1150. I bid $800. The dial was still low mid-range even though the bid was on the higher side. I'm not sure that I put much faith in that dial. Also, I probably wouldn't have gone so high had the cruise not shown sold-out. Sometimes, a cruise line opens up a few cabins, but this has been sold-out the entire time since I received the upgrade offer. On airlines I usually bid just above the minimum.
