I just wrote the following via Twitter to Airbnb Help.
Hi. I just noticed that prices for Oct 10th and later don’t change when I don’t change my base price. It’s stuck at 1950. Why? This is BAD. My listing is http://towerroom.net .
Has anyone noticed anything like this, and what am I missing, if anything? I think I manually blocked those days and then opened them, but I don’t see why that would make a difference.
If I was an observant person, I would have noticed this before. Now, this is why I don’t ;use Instant Book.
Could be a part of the memo that Air sent about changing base fee or something that went into effect yesterday. I went ahead and selected whole months of this year and next, and set the base fee to the number I want to the tourist season and off season. I’m not using Air’s Smart Pricing or any other automatic pricing scheme ever again. It’s very little work to select all of a month, set the base price, and repeat with the next month. It took me about 15 minutes to price out all of 2017.
