Now let me start by saying that its addictive... BUT you must bid with the mindset that your going to pay retail and if you get it for less great. I have had some great luck on things. I mean great... I have 4 Ipod touches in the mail now, 3 8gb's and 1 64 GB the 64 I paid full price, but the 3 8GB's paid a total of 47 dollar for all 3. I will sell on craigs list and make a profit... BUT!

I am having an issue with a few things and I am taking notes on certain people and names. I don't think that BigDeal is behind this but I do think a group of people have formed a group and are abusing the high dollar items. For instance... Let say there is a 1699 dollar TV up and you can see from the bidding that there are about 4 or 5 people watching and bidding. If 2 of the guys that are in it together are bidding vs each other the other people wait on the side line to get the bidding out of the way. Poeple set patterns in bidding some people wait to bid till the last and if you watch a person bid at the last second for the last 80 bids its safe to say he will keep waiting to do that,,,,, BUT if he is in cahoots with his buddy that is taking the lead and always bidding when aother bids. When it gets to the last second and he doesnt bid like he has for the last 30 mins... bam action over and the 2 guys get the TV... I have a list of names that are in the same auction and this list of 20-25 names are killing the high dollar TV's, I have yet to research any other items but I know I will find the same results.
SO... why I think Bigdeal has no clue? This abuse of items is NOT profitable to them and they would not want this beause the common folk get raped from their bids and don't come back. PLus the auction ends way to fast.
You may say that BIg deal is aware of it and allows it. I say bull$#*!. I for one have had 7 differnt accounts and under 7 differnt e-mail address's and as long as you have 7 differnt funding sourses you can do this. Not untill they make you register with a name are they going to stop this. Like I said I had 7 differnt names but only 4 funding sourses and closed all but 2 accounts.
I would love to post names of the folks I think are abusing but I would like to see other people doing the same.
