Went against my better judgement and thought I would give it a go, since little pop up boxes constantly popping up for Ipad sold for $43.00, Iphone $5.64 etc! Eventhough researching how these penny auctions work thought I would purchase a few bids, mmm - $50.00 worth and try it out... mistake! I decided to bid on a Ipad 2 and Iphone both in the last minute cycle... going going gone but there seems to be no end to the going going gone with a selection of robot bidders obviously bidding Hundreds of dollars from what I could see as well as the site taking bids that don't even register on the item... and you are still paying $1.00 for a 2 cent increment that another 5 people have also paid for... wow, a very clever scam - the going going gone auction for the Ipad is still going 8 hours later. I've used up my bids & definately would not be chasing it... I've cut my losses and stick to normal auctions and not go against my inner instinct next time! I hope people decide to read reviews before they kiss their hard earned money goodbye and fatten the wallets of these very shrewd operators of this type of auction... There really should be a governing body to how this all works, I've never seen an auction or been to an auction where going going gone lasts for hours or even days on end... My Advise would be DO NOT BID! You will be able to get a better deal on BOXING DAY SPECIALS or Shopping at reputable sites and trying your luck on EBAY! Merry Christmas to all :)
