They aren't comparable, completely different. Expedia just scans airlines for rates and lists them. With priceline you are bidding significantly lower for flights that airlines are willing to sell at a very discounted rate.

I use Priceline all the time. I never pay more than $20/day for a rental car and never pay more than $75/night for a 4 star hotel. I've used it a couple times for flights when I was able to fly anytime on a day and it went fine, just be prepared for some stops.

Whenever I'm considering using Priceline I always go to www.biddingfortravel.com first. Its a forum of Priceline users and they post their recent winning bids for hotels, cars and flights. This helps you not to overbid and what bid you can probably win with for a particular product and destination.
