This site was nothing more than a HUGE SCAM. Several years ago I signed up to bid and won a $500 Bloomingdale's Gift Certificate, but trying to actually get them to send you what you have won is impossible.
First, you must jump through all of their hoops. Then they tell you your item will arrive in approx. 15 days. When you never receive your item they use all kinds of stalling tactics and ultimately stop responding to emails.
I filed a complaint with the FTC. Next thing I knew the website was closed down. Evidently, I was not the only one who filed a complaint.

This site had the opportunity to be brilliant.

Instead it is a royal scam.

How dare you allow bidding to occur in such an unprofessional manner that would put the gambling industry to shame.

Anyone with half a brain can translate 1 penny to one dollar and see that everything is 10 fold the cost. There must be a consumer watch group that will find out about this and shut you down as quickly as you scammed people.

This is perhaps the biggest bull$#*! site i have every been on. Refer a friend? Not on your lame website, or life.

I believed it was not a scam so I purchased $100 worth of bids only to lose every time. That would have been fine had I been able to purchase other items with the rewards dollars I earned, but the web site closed before I could purchase anything at their trunk show. I emailed them to find out if new items would be coming to the trunk show since I wasn't thrilled with the options and they told me more would be coming very soon. Next thing I knew the website was shut down. Not happy.

I won a Gucci handbag on March 7,2011 and they said if I'm not receive the item by the 15th business day then contact them. Well I contact them on the 16th day which is a few days ago and their email was on and off. Finally they email me and said will get back to me soon. At first I didn't think it's a scam because they once credit me $200 back on my credit card. Now it's 18th business day already (Mar 31,2011) and today the website is closed. My bag has not arrive and I still have 72 bids ($72) in my account. I almost buy another 200 bids last night but when I entered a valid coupon code, it said invalid. I then suspicious and wait for today and see what happen. What happen to my all my $72 and the Gucci bag I won? I know I'm not the only one and I know it's not a scam because there's people actually receiving the bag. Anyone write down their phone number.

I wish I did my research first before signing up for oohilove.com - what a waste of money! First off, I read everything on their website and even watched the video tutorial - I was convinced that their website was 'real' and it seemed legit to me, so I finally caved in and entered my credit card info and purchased the lowest 'bid pack' which was $29.99.

I started bidding on their Marc Jacobs bag and was doing pretty good until all of a sudden all these 'bid assistants' started to out-bid me and of course I eventually ran out of bids and could not continue. What's really strange is I waited until the last 10 seconds to start bidding, because I knew at least 3 other people were watching that same bag... as I sat there watching their 'manual bids' I started to notice all these 'new bidders' popping up. (This of course raised a red flag to me). I knew something was not right here. I have a feeling it's the company's employees who monitor the site and make sure suckers like me do not win the luxury designer bag. What a waste of time & money.

The good news is I only gambled $30 on this website --definitely a hard lesson learned -- PLEASE STAY AWAY from oohilove.com... they are running a scam!

This website is NOT a scam, it is simply a different kind of online auction. The pay to bid style helps keeps the price of luxury items down. Like any auction, there is only one winner so it sometimes takes more than one try to win an item. This is probably why they list the same items multiple times. The facebook page shows videos of people who have won so I think that speaks for the legitimacy of the site. The company is based in California, all the items are brand new and guaranteed.

It is a scam. They showed you how people win auctions and paid so little. However when you actually bid with your money there will always be someone who is bidding against you and this person seems to have unlimited amount of money (bids). I believe most of the bidders are part of the company. They knew how much bids you have and what you put in bid assistant and they can always outbid you. I am mad at myself that I am so stupid to try. PLEASE DO NOT FALL INTO THE TRAP. If you think gambling is addictive and bad, this is worst. At least you have a 50% chance of winning when you gamble! They spray on your feeling of not wanting to lose and the fact that everyone loves a bargain. They are blood sucking vampires! Please stay away! It is an expensive lesson for me.

This website is the only form of legal gambling and fraud that I am aware of. I am 100% convinced they are using their own bidders (or at least folks they have given hundreds of thousands of free "bids" to use) to build up the price of the item and literally steal money from consumers looking for a good deal. This site fleeced me of over $2000 and I have never felt more duped and naive that I had believed this was legit. When I tried to contact customer service there was none. This is a horrible site, product but hey, they are making themselves a fortune while abusing the consumer. I HATE OOHILOVE. Could that be any clearer?

Unless you have all day to sit in front of the computer and bid, do not bother. It gets worse, I kept going back to the site for 3 hours and then I was outbid by someone using their bid assistant program. I bid at the last second and was outbid by their bid service. Why bother, there is no fun in that and I got taken for a ride. I asked for the rest of my money back and they did give me a refund. Guess this happens all the time. Let your friends know.

Elvis was probably thinking of people that run this type of operation when he wrote "Don't be cruel to a heart that's true". They lead you on in promise of something you desire and at the last moment, they kick it down the road just out of reach. Over and over again till your broke or you overpaid. This reminds me of a radio contest they had down in San Diego at Belmont Park in the early 90's. They had a contest that 10 people who got to the finals get to ride the roller coaster there all day until one is left. The last person to get off would win a new car. This contest went on for days until there were only 2 people hell bent on making it to the end. That's when they modified the rules so that when they were finished at the end of the night they had to sleep in the seats of the coaster. The 2 poor souls were only allowed to eat tuna melt sandwiches and drink warm mountain dew. I believe they did this for several weeks until they felt so sorry for the two folks that they each got cars. That station never did that contest again! That would be the only difference between this website and the radio station, the website would of let them keep on going until one of them died. I know my opinion is very subjective but that is the way I strongly feel about these type of sites preying on desperate people trying to get a good deal.

Now this is an interesting concept. I really enjoyed my recent experience with oohilove.com. After bidding for the first time on a gucci shoulder bag i lost $20 but was happy to see the person who was bidding from so long won the bag for only $24.80. Iknow the site is making so much money but its their business and the main thing is, they are giving the top brands on such low prices, like the gucci bag won by that lucky person, costs around $1134 and look how much discount he got... i'll surely try again..
