I was considering trying out my luck with haggle.com but before I did, I thought it be a good idea to get a feel for the strategies that other bidders were using to win. So, I began studying the action around several of the auctions. Some of which was very compelling, intriguing and exciting. I started to see a possible avenue to save some money and maybe even make a little, who knows, right? THIS IS MAJOR PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE YOU GET STARTED: I was watching an auction on a Toshiba Mini NetBook and the CURRENT LEADER WAS IALLIS. What was amazing to me was IALLIS was the only one bidding on the Netbook and EACH TIME THE CLOCK HIT 1 SECOND IALLIS OUT BID HIM OR HERSELF! I might believe that on occasion all the bidders hit the button at the same time and that IALLIS just ended up on top so quick that the other bidders were not even seen, but that wasn't the case this happened several times in a row! At first, I thought I was just missing something, but no IALLIS OUTBID HIM OR HERSELF SEVERAL TIMES IN A ROW RUNNING PRICE UP BEFORE ACTUALLY BEING AWARDED THE WIN! What the heck is going on I thought!? Why would someone outbid him or herself? In addition, watch the number of bids some users place, it is just ridiculous and unrealistic no one can be that out of touch with their money that they would just throw it away like that! The living aren't just throwing money away during this great recession. Also, the site has no transparency what so ever so if you have any problems don't expect much more than a previously prepared canned response. I have read other reviews of users of haggle.com and it seems most with the exception of employees have nothing but scam to say. And of course Haggle.com has their defensive plans and canned responses in place. Bottom line any real good scam would because they would know going in that they'd be investigated sooner or later. I strongly recommend that you stay out and off this site. Look for legit deals somewhere else on the Internet. Believe me you do not want to fall for into their trap of hope! When it's too good to be true, it most likely isn't. Buyer beware, Strategy doesn't pay off if 1 user is outbidding him or herself!

I wouldn't wish Haggle on my worst enemy.
