I've gotten many great deals on dealdash.com but the most surprising thing was the outstanding customer service I've received on the few issues I've encountered. Their customer service folks are live, caring people who really have the answers, not an automated system churning out generic responses.
As with any business, there may well be glitches from time to time, but I found by contacting them, they answered in a timely manner and went above and beyond the norm to help me.
Awesome site! Simply to do even for the newest computer user. Nice quality items!
They dont ship items, they dont respond if you have an issue with them. They did respond fast when I couldnt get intothe site when I first signed up but after that when there was an issue with an auction... takes forever or they do not answer. It is Jan 11 2013, I am still waiting for an item I won in November. Contacted bbb. If you look them up on there they have hundreds of cases opened on them (they are marked closed because if you do not respond in a certain number of days the bbb will close ur case does NOT mean it was resolved). You can have ur case reopened though. They really are a SCAM!
I have been a DealDash customer for a year and have always enjoyed bidding on the Auctions and luckily winning on several occasions. I have had very positive experiences from the Customer Service team, and have received all of the items I won in a very timely manner, I like DealDash because they offer a good selection of items to bid on as well as FREE Bids as you add time on the clock for being the highest bidder. Some of the Power Bidders can make Clock time difficult, but I try to choose my Auctions and only bid on items I know I want. Thank You to the DealDash team and have a very prosperous 2013.
Deal Dash has been ignoring it's customers by not returning emails regarding missing won/purchased auction items. There is no way to reach them by phone. Their phone number directs you to email them. IF you do get an email response, it's usually weeks later and then all you get are empty promises and canned auto replies when you inquire where your missing won auction items are that you were due to receive WEEKS or MONTHS ago, based on the dates they gave you when you won the auction. They set the status for the items as "shipped" as soon as you pay them, yet in my case, when a customer service rep finally responded to my email, admitted that they had never been shipped, and wouldn't BE shipped for another week or two. They ruined my Christmas, and I still haven't received my won items. I won them in mid-November. They were due here by December 5,2012. That's the date Deal Dash posted on those items. By late December, I finally filed claims with Pay Pal, and my credit card company. Pay Pal has a 45 day time limit, so I didn't want time to run out. When Pay Pal sent my claim to Deal Dash and asked for a tracking number for the shipped items, Deal Dash provided Pay Pal with FAKE USPS tracking numbers. For every item. My claims are currently under review with Pay Pal and my credit card company has issued Deal Dash (via Pay Pal) chargebacks for my claims. I also have posted reviews on sites like this everywhere, have filed with the BBB, and my next step is the NY State Attorney and my local police department. IF you need help with similar issues... or even have other problems, such as you've noticed strange or unusual activity in the auctions (such as constant freezing, etc), you're a victim of bait and switch (you won something but they sent you something that was of lesser value or refurbished, for example), or if you received an item that was broken and they won't allow you to return it... go to this site on Facebook. There are people there that will try to help. You are not alone. http://www.facebook.com/pages/Dealdashripoff/**************?ref=ts&fref=ts
It was a great experience, I won several items and they were shipped and received in a timely manner. Several of the items I won were expensive items that I would not have purchased on my own and it was a great time bidding against others and seeing the "YOU WON" come up... love the site and would recommend to all.
DealDash is a great Auction you buy the bids and, get great deals I have lots of fun bidding if I dot't have lots of time I set my bid buddy to bid for me. I've won bids and buy it now is great.
I have had good experiences with this penny auction site. I love it. It is a very fun way to shop! I have won many, many items since I started shopping for Christmas gifts the second week of October. I was done Christmas shopping and had received all of my Christmas gifts by the end of the first week of December. Yes, I had a few items I won that were out of stock, but I have had that happen often enough when shopping regular online or catalog stores, haven't you? I won some really great items for less than a dollar in final costs and most with no more than 9 bids costing less than $1.62. Shopping in penny auctions is just like shopping elsewhere, you have to be frugal with your bids. Don't squander them all on one item, you may not win. Have I spent more than I won? No way. I've won at least twice what I spent, and much more like three times the value of what I spent. Whenever I have had a question about anything, whether about items I have won, free bids, or weekly limits, I just contact their support group and I have always gotten an satisfying response in a reasonable time. DealDash may not be for everyone, but I love, love, love it!
I visit the site daily. I haven't won many auctions but i've been pleased with the items i have won.
I LOVE DealDash! They have delivered every single item that I have both won and purchased! Free shipping, no auction fees, the best site going today!
I give it a weak 3 stars. I've played around with it and both won and did buy it now's. Good points is that there is a fair selection of items. If there is a need I'd say more lower end items are needed. And the buy it now option is good. There should be a cap on the bid buddy IMO but not a deal breaker. I like the no jumper idea.
My beef is the items not received problem. If the item becomes out of stock EQUAL value should be offered but this is not the case. For every single item that was out of stock was in turn was offered replacement by a lower valued item. For example My Shark Vacuum ($259) was replaced with a offer of a $200 Walmart gift card. Burt's Bees package ($25) was offered a replacement of a $15 Amazon card. There were many others but I won't list them all.
Some items, gift cards mainly were marked as shipped but over a month still hadn't arrived. As these come First Class mail with metered postage I have noted that they are taking 2 to at most 3 business days to arrive in my Ohio mailbox from their location in Des Plaines Illinois.
My recommendation.
Go ahead and play the game but pay with PayPal and watch your delivery times carefully. If the prize doesn't arrive within 44 calender days hop on PayPal and file a INR. Don't try calling or e-mailing at the PayPal prompt from DealDash, it's only a recording trying to delay your claim until it is too late.
Great site! Products are great, customer service is excellent and shipping is fast!
Great experience... have won some nice items... quick delivery too!
This is the fairest of all the penny auction websites! The no jumper auctions are the most honest auctions out there!

I think Deal Dash is greatest penny site out there. I have had a great experiance.
They offer cheap bids. They dont let other bidders bid after $5.00. I have actually won from Deal Dash and I recieved my item in a timely manner. I wrote to customer support to see when the item would actually get to me, and they responded to me in 24 hours. I will continue to use Deal Dash in the future.
Deal Dash is the best Penny Auction Site out there. I have won multiple items and received them quickly. I recommend this site to anyone out there!
By far my favorite penny auction site... I have won many great items from this site, and if I dont win the auction they always have the BIN feature... Gotta love buy it now...
Dealdash is a great site for bidding on products that you want. If you don't win them, you can buy them at a reasonable price and get all of your bids back. It is a lot of fun and gives the opportunity for some great deals!
OMG! I love this site! I'm totally hooked, I found so many inexpensive gifts for xmas & paid a fraction of what I would have normally paid in the stores! In this tough economy, it was worth the gamble!
Answer: Thats a hard question to answer, because it depends on the article, and its value. I will say I have won some great Articles, and lost many, maby more. The more valuable the article the harder to win. Personally, I gave up on Deal Dash due to the BID STOMPING and Jumpers and the gready nature of some bidders, who stockpile bids. Also, even though Deal Dash supposedly has means to catch Buddy Bidding, I myself have caught at least 4 people doing buddy bidding, reported it, and nothing was ever done about it. Finally I no longer play on Deal Dash, for the reasons I mentioned, but thats my choice. Its up to you, on what you want to do. Hope this helps.
Answer: Hi Beatriz, I want to start this conversation by inviting you to read our Audit Conducted by Ernst & Young: https://dealdash.files.wordpress.com/2014/12/dealdash_ey_audit.pdf Fair & Honest is a symbolic capture of DealDash's core values, and these certainly start and end with our commitment to being humanistic. I would love to show this to you, how can we help? Please let me know. Adrian Community Manager
Answer: Hi William. If you do not win an auction you will not automatically get the bids back to your account. You have the option to use the Buy it Now button. By using the Buy it Now option you will get the item for retail price and all bids back to your account that you used in the auction. Users who take advantage of this option usually have a better experience, since they both get the item they initially wanted, as well as retain all their bids. If you do not want to use Buy it Now you will unfortunately lose the bids. We recommend our users to bid on items they really want, so that if they lose the auction, they can still get the item and their bids back. Let me know if you have more questions!
Answer: Hi Julie, I hope you are having a wonderful day I'd be happy to explain how the Buy-It-Now option works. Each bid you place takes away one of your bids from your balance and increases the price of the auction by 1 penny, then resetting the clock to 10 seconds. It's in this small window that someone else must decide if they will place a bid to outbid you. If no new bids are placed and you are the final bidder in the auction, you win the auction at the final sales price. If you do not win the auction, you will see the Buy It Now button. By using the Buy it now option, you will get the item for retail price and all the bids you used in that auction will be returned to your bid balance. Users who take advantage of this option usually have a better experience, since they get the item they initially wanted as well as retain all their bids.

Answer: Hi Elizaabeth, Thank you for getting in touch. We offer all of our customers a full money back guarantee for the first bid pack purchase. Our payments team can get in touch with you and issue a refund. Please send me a number we can call. My email is adrian@dealdash.com
Answer: Hi Patricia, Thank you for getting in touch. I am sure this has been a misunderstanding. DealDash is audited by Ernst & Young, confirming that all bids are placed by real customers and all items are delivered. DealDash members and their acquaintances are strictly banned from taking part in the auctions. My guess is that another user may have chosen a user name similar to DealDash. If so, we'll need to change it to avoid confusion. Please send me an email with your user name, so I can find the auctions and spot the user. My email is adrian@dealdash.com I look forward to hearing from you. Best, Adrian Community Manager
Answer: Hi Jan, For new users, I normally recommend watching our How it Works video for a brief overview of what to expect from the auctions: http://www.dealdash.com/how-does-it-work DealDash has a 100% money back guarantee on your first bid pack purchase and a winning guarantee. If you decide to give DealDash a try and don't win an auction with your first bid pack we'll return the bids back to your account free for a second chance. If you're still not satisfied with your DealDash shopping experience we'll be happy to refund your first bid pack purchase no questions asked. You can even keep any bids in your account or items you have won. Giving DealDash a try is risk free!
Answer: Hi Jasmine. All items on the site are brand new, factory sealed and come with standard manufacturer’s warranties. Vanessa, I am very sorry to hear you have felt that way. Could you please let me know your user name and I'll pull up your account? I'll be happy to assist with any concerns!
