This site is great! For all you so called customer service reps at wavve! You suck! I hope you sleep at night knowing that you guys constantly rip people off! I ordered a xbox for my son on december 7 2010 and it clearly says that it can take 2-3 weeks for processing and then 2-4 for shipping! LOL! Its been a month and i still havent recieved it. Now they say it will be delivered on January 20,2011 what a joke i will never use this auction again... what a scam!

“As per other reviews, I was also duped into spending...”

As per other reviews, I was also duped into spending $179. There was no confirmation page I did not realize an order was taking place, I was only trying to sign up for the trial. I sent them an email and they were unwilling to work with me. Making the best of it by trying to win some big ticket items. Lesson learned never enter your credit card info without reading the fine print!

By accident won a digital camera and a leatherman knife in Feb. Should be shipped in 21 days or less they said. So finally talked to one customer service dude and i guess he had been hammered by angry bidders all day and he just said man i am so sorry, we are having major growing pains, it may be 3 or 4 months before you get your stuff, well, he was right, still no merchandise. They used to have limits on how many bid bundles you could win in a week but lifted that now these sharks with lots of money and time get them all at any cost to keep from others. STAY AWAY!

Promises to ship from my first two "wins" were cancelled after weeks. So, I tried again, and now 60 days later, still no product. Anyone want to buy 500+ credits to this scam website? Maybe for a 'review' on tv, or something? I'm game, call me. MrWareWolf on facebook!

An utterly corrupt, misleading business. Save your precious time and hard-earned money. They like to slyly charge credit cards for astronomical amounts and then tell you they will refund you but never follow through.

Just reported them to the BBB, please do the same! It's no wonder they have only a D+ rating by them.

Won items over 2 months ago and still haven't received them even after calling and filling out a support ticket. Giving it one more week before filing with BBB and contacting the Attorney General of State and Federal and hiring a lawyer to see if we can get a class action law suit going.

Don't recommend anyone use this site for bidding. You will see automatic charges to your credit card for "credits" which are non-refundable and "can" be used during the bidding process (maybe). A new low in internet bidding sites.

I have been on this site since about Noon today trying to buy/win a notebook computer (it is now 9:06 PM), very few of the "bidders" seem to be real people I suspect most of the "bidders" are shills or Bots!... Please let me know if you had the same experience with Wavee... Sincerely, Michael... *******@hotmail. Com

Wavee now "hides" a $75 charge for 120 bid credits in the "Terms of Usage Agreement" (they claim), and they assert that you authorized the charge when the "check" the "Agree" box. Dont ask me where it is cause I've never been able to find it when I reread the "Terms". Can't believe they expect you to spend $75 prior to even seeing an auction! Guess they gave up on the $179 2nd page sign-up and looks like the scam now starts on the first page... can't believe they are so GREEDY! Avoid this site like the pox!

Rip off! You are teased with these unbelievable 30-80% off deals on the hottest new devices. You sign up and immediately have to pay $150! The only way to "win" and item is if you stay up all night like some obsessed fool and keep bidding, but you better hope your internet connection doesn't slow down cause your then screwed. Thousands up people sign up and pay for credits but only few win! RIP OFF!

It's a scam that somebody is getting rich off of. I purchased 80 credits for $48.00 to bid with on the site. I bid on one Item for several hours got nothing. So it cost me $. 60 for each pennie bid that I made. You do the math. It will cost you $60.00 to bid up one Dollar on a Item. I leaned the hard way! It would be cheaper to go buy it at a REAL Store. Hope this helps somebody else from getting took.

I have won 6 items between 12/21/2010 and 2/25/11, so far i have not received any of the items. I have called. To no avail. They voided one of the auctions that i won for the same reason stated in previous comments. I am at a loss, not sure what to do next, however this site is giving me some good suggestions. They have also changed all of my ship dates several times. I am angry and will call them again tomorrow, since today was the latest ship date on the first item. I will keep posting progress, if any. Stay away from this site, i agree with all that has been said, about the bidding... the bots... and the questionable auction endings.

I signed up for the auction because it offered 350 FREE points. I played around on the site for a couple of days, never buying anything. I just got my credit card bill & they billed me $179 for the 350 points. I immediately disputed the charge after trying to contact the company (their office is closed on weekends). No way I'm paying for this fraudulent charge.

I won a Garmin 1490t and a Kodak z981 back in the middle of jan 2001 and they promise the delivery in 10-15 working days. I still haven't see it yet. Next delivery date is my a May. Over 3 months. That's if they deliver it... Don't be fooled, they will tak your money but delivery, who can tell?

I agree with everyone else! I THOUGHT that I was signing in to have a free look and not bid, but later found out that they charged me $75.00! Grrrrrr. That is so low. DO NOT bid at this site or even go beyond the initial page or you may be charged and not know it either! How many thumbs do I have, not enough for all the thumbs down I would give this site! A REAL RIP OFF!

This site auto enrolls you into accepting their start up fee. You will not know that you are being charged just for signing up.

You have very little chance of getting a refund and you better contact your credit card company right away to cancel the card and get a new account.

This site also seems to have a huge problem ACTUALLY getting you the item you seem to have won. DO NOT SIGN UP FOR THIS SITE.

To all of you who have been duped like I was. I got all my money back after a good fight. Follow these: 1.stop payment by your credit card
File a strong report to your State Attorney General. 3. file a strong report to Atlanta BBB. 4. File a strong report to Federal Trade Commission.
Always make the POINT strongly that this is an UNLICENSED GAMBLING SITE and not an AUCTION SITE. Also threaten to take them to local small claims court.

After "winning" a auction bid on Wavee January 7,2011... I am still waiting on delivery of the product... estimated shipping date went from February 22 to March 18,2011. I don't really expect to see it! I would not recommend this bid site to anyone! Stupid me!

TOTAL SCAM... DO NOT SIGN UP FOR THIS SITE. They say it is. 75 a bid but when you sign up it is $75.00 WHICH IS NONREFUNDABLE. They also don't tell you it is 1.99 for processing if you win. Also when you first start the have you on begginer bids, it says you have to win 3 times to move up so you can't even bid on the better items. Oh and they add 20 seconds to the timer everytime you bid. TOTAL SCAM!

I think this site is the most dishonest site i have ever seen! They neglect to tell you that even if you do not get the winning bid, they keep your credits and you lose your money! WHAT A SCAM! Don't fall for it! It is nearly impossible to be the winning bidder on items.

I was frustrated by lack of information on the site, they just want you to sign-up, no clear explanation. Fortunately I don't do anything unil I understand detail so I resisted temptation to go after a wii auctioning at $61. I watched a while and started adding up how much one guy was spending on each bid, each time his name came up I added $0.75 to the price he'd have to pay and didn't like what I saw as he had spent quite a lot of money bidding. He must of bid at least 20 to 30 times and the auction kept re-setting so he was down 20 to 30 without any guarantee he would win with 10 people still bidding. I calculated the profit this site was making watching the bids fly and the auction price yet to be paid and it disgusted me so much I decided to do more research. I found this site as was so grateful, I learnt from people who had been burnt, it confirmed my instinct and I appreciate you all sharing. I will stay away, even just the principal of the site, I can't support any company making these ridiculour profits and worse, not following through on something they made so much money off, they should gladly be shipping something they made such a big profit off of.

This website is a scam and they take your money and don't deliver product. You have to give them money to bid on items but it takes your money whether you win the bid or not. I bid on one product and by the time the bidding stopped I had spent over $20.00 to try and win the bid and the product ended up costing more than retail.
I will never go to this site to purchase anything again.
