Reservations: why get it free when you can pay?
Earlier this week, Curbed reporterd that a new web site, www.withoutreservations.biz, is selling Valentine's Day dinner reservations for $40. On Wednesday I sent a few questions to the people running the site, and they've not yet responded. Apparently they're too busy counting their money. Among my questions: What do you do if a restaurant requires a credit card to hold the reservation? Do you give them a fake one?
Aren’t you basically making it harder for the rest of us to get a table? Today's Post has a story about the site, sans interview, but it does note that the site was selling reservations to restaurants that actually still have Valentine's reservations available -- for free. Suckers.
Checking the site tonight, I see they are entirely sold out for New York, but have gobs left in Los Angeles.
