Deal Dash offers excellent support. Shipping is free and very fast.
I have won a lot and I have won more than I have spent.
What I don't like is the auctioning of large bid pks. When people win them
They immediately go into ongoing auctions. This makes it very unfair.
If you do try DD just beware of the winners of large bid pks.

Good feedback Lin, thank you! You're correct that when people win a large bid pack, like 2000 or 5000 bids, it's likely they may go on a bidding rampage to try and win some of the ongoing auctions. If there's anything you think we can improve upon to help make your experience better please don't hesitate to get in touch with our team. Sincerely, Dave

I trade on the internet
September 22, 2013

I trade on the internet. I just spent an hour yesterday and an hour today reviewing how the system works. Dealdash is raking in the cash, and statistically, you WILL NOT get a good deal. YES, there are people getting GREAT deals! AND there people winning the lottery too! Dealdash uses the IMMENSE profits from all the bidders to pay the vendors well for the items posted. And don't be ""swayed" by all the positive posts you see here! You think that they are all following the rule "Do not post here if you have an interest in the company"? WINK WINK

Hi Kip,

I'm sorry to see your negative review of our business. Most people that try our service do have a good experience, therefore if someone is not satisfied we'll provide a full refund on their first purchase. One reason people love to shop with us is because we make shopping more fun and provide customers the chance to win some great deals. If you don't win, you can buy the item at regular retail price using the Buy it Now option and get back all the bids. This way you don't lose the money spent on bids and can use them again to try for something else.

There are over 1,000 winners every day and we make a profit in order to exist. The profit margins are comparable to a typical retail store. If you have any other questions or if we can help in any way, please don't hesitate to contact our customer support team. Sincerely, Dave

So bids cost $. 60 to sign up I bought the 60 bid starter pack for $36. Bids hen went on sale for $. 15 so I bought 2000 for $300 thinking that would be plenty of bids. I bid on a $600 iPad and used about 2400 bids with the idea of just buying it at the end and getting my bids back if necessary. This particular iPad sold for $186.24. That is 18,624 bids, let's say each bid was sold for $. 15 that would equal $2,793.60 for an iPad, plus the $186.24 that the winner had to pay. I wish I had invented this ridiculous scam. The people at this site must be raking in money hand over fist due to all the sad dumb people (like me) who just flush their money away. I have tried using my bids on other items since and firmly believe that you cannot win any of these if you have a job or a life. Then I found out that there are software programs out there that people can download to give them extra information and help them win. My advice would be to save your money. I started with the idea that if I only bid on something that I am willing to pay full price for anyway that I can't lose right? Except that after using all of my $350 worth of bids and then having to pay $50 for winning a $350 dollar item, I actually lost $50 and wasted a lot of my time. I'm sure there are people out there that get lucky once in a while or have a system, but it's just like playing in a casino, eventually the house always wins.

I joined DealDash in September 2012. A friend told me about another penny auction site that I tried for a bit, but did not like, so I used the internet to check out some others. I tried a few of them briefly, but was never impressed. Then, I saw and tried DealDash and truly liked it from the start. I read all the instructions, reviews, and watched some auctions before I tried it. After playing for a while, I discovered that if I had a question or a problem, the Support Team was always there … that REALLY impressed me! I started with small inexpensive items and did pretty well. As I graduated to larger auctions, I was successful and began the quest to try to do all my 2012 Christmas shopping on DealDash. I finished all of my shopping before Thanksgiving! Most of the gifts were impressive and on the expensive side. I purchased everything for pennies on the dollar with free shipping.
After shopping for everyone else, and with several large Amazon cards I won, I was able to purchase a quality bicycle for my husband and a cool tricycle for myself. I also won 2 Nikon cameras, 2 laptops, a Samsung cell phone, 2 Samsung tablets, 3 Dr. Dr headphones, a 45" HDTV, a sewing machine, a pressure cleaner, kitchen appliances, linens, toys, and gift cards galore! I now have all the electronics and gadgets I need.
And just recently I won the "Best Photo of the Week" prize from DealDash and chose to receive a $500 Amazon Gift Card. In addition, I received 200 free bids for the initial posting of the photo on their Facebook page! I volunteer with a local animal rescue operation, and so I'm always looking after animals that need a little extra help. That card will buy a LOT of vitamins, supplements, supplies, food, and litter for these abandoned, abused, and neglected babies.
I am an extremely satisfied DealDash customer. The savings are amazing, the support is amazing, and I see myself as being a DealDash customer for life
PS: I have a little hint for folks who might like to know for sure when a UPS package is being delivered. Sign up for UPS My Choice. You will know exactly when a package is being delivered and then sent a message after it is put on your front porch! You can even have them hold a package or re-route a package.

I have a great time using Deal Dash and have won 25 items in the past 19 days. Most folks that have a bad experience simply don't understand how to use the site. You should only bid on things that your willing to buy anyway, that way if you lose then you simply use the Buy It Now feature and you'll get all your bids back to try for something else. Since shipping is free, if you use this strategy then its a win win situation. You get the item you wanted and the bids to try again. And if you win, then you've gotten a great deal on something you wanted anyway. Just be patient and watch a few before you start and it will all become clear how to play. Just don't go straight for that big screen TV with no experience and a few hundred bids and expect to win it big.

I am winning quite a bit
September 13, 2013

I am winning quite a bit. You really have to know when to hold em and when to fold em. In the beginning, I was getting my butt handed to me. Now I know how and when to bid. I am extremely pleased with the customer service on the site. I get most of the items I have won in just days! I won a 600.00 camera on Saturday and had it by Wednesday. Now that is fast (and FREE) shipping! Great job DD. Now if they could just get rid of the power bidders, I would be in heaven.

Thank you Joyce for the feedback and glad to hear you've been winning! Very good tip... it's important people stick to their budget and calculate in advance how many bids to use in the auction thus not to overspend. Sincerely, Dave

This sight is a total scam?
September 11, 2013

This sight is a total scam?
You bid with bids costing $0.60 that are only worth $0.01 in the auctions and you lose the bid every time you bid. I Bid on an item worth $3000 and lost over $300. The only way I could get my money back was to go ahead and spend another $3000 or full retail. I will never bid again.

Hi Francis, using the Buy it Now in case you don't win the auction and sticking to a budget are two of the best tips for having the best experience. We'll continue to list more and more auctions as more people are bidding on the site at the same time. If you have any suggestions on how we can make the experience better please be sure to get in touch with our team. Sincerely, Dave

I believe DealDash is THE best auction site there is. The items up for bid are GOOD items, (good quality), the bids are reasonably priced, and delivery time on won auction items is really great!
I've dealt with customer service a couple of times, and they're incredible. The site itself has great incentives, without being convoluted.
I've truly enjoyed the site so far. I would comment further, but I've got to go check a couple of auctions right quick! Yes, I do love my DealDash!

I have won several gift cards and a grill set. The largest item I won was a 18V dewalt cordless drill for $1.90. It's value was $199. I really like the fact that if you win something that you really don't want that you can trade it for bids. I would recommend the site to family and friends

DealDash is an absolutely brilliant idea and you can definitely win big. However, my biggest complaint is that the number of auctions are not caught up with the current demand. So many people are joining everyday, and unfortunately, the site just can't keep up, making it increasingly more difficult to win. Yet, if you are a smart bidder, you can at least break even.

In two weeks I've won 15 items including a $500 Nikon D3100 DLSR for very little cost and few bids. S&H is always free, how could you beat that? The "Buy It Now Get Bids Back" is a great promo and there is always an incentive of earning free bids for photo submission. Got an issue or question? Email and you will receive a prompt response and speedy resolution. Love my bidding experience with you, DealDash! Looking forward to more blogs and tips on winning..

It is true you have to have some time to spend, and some money to buy bids. However, I have won many things. I pace myself and watch what I am spending for bids added to the cost of the item. I will not spend more than half the retail. I have gotten many things for less than 1 dollar, and have seen other auctions go as cheaply. Sure, some bidders keep bidding long after common sense would allow, but if you watch what you are doing, you can get many things for good prices.

I just checked out deal dash for my 80 yr old mother because she kept seeing the commercials on TV. My experience was ridiculous! It ended up costing me a lot of money that I do not have! Luckily I was the one who did this and not her, considering she is on a low income! I was consistently shown as the higher bidder but my points would run out and you would have to buy more! This is we're a person could get ripped off because it continually keeps adding on ten seconds and never ends! I will NEVER use this site again!

I went as far as to contact the BBB of NY at one point, however the customer service has completely turned around and is now very helpful, have great knowledge of the site and truly make you know they are wanting to resolve any issue you may have.

Today was my first day trying dealdash.com It is now so bad actually, it's just very competitive. What i find very upsetting is their support system... it's horrible. I wrote to them 3 times today and they didn't reply at all. Also, on TV it says if you don't win, they give you your money back on the first item. I bid on an apple Ipad and lost 127 bids and they haven't given them back to me... I would like my bids back please... and a response from support.

If you send me a personal message through here with some additional details I'll be more than happy to look into this matter, and it's certainly no problem for us to credit your account with the bids you used from your first bid pack if you didn't win an auction.
