I can't understand what's with the incessant whining going on in these reviews about this site being a scam. It is very clearly a PAY-TO-BID site. The language on how to use the site is very clear and straightforward. The language around the Bid packages is very clear and straightforward. If you do the quick math, it is pretty clear that each bid costs the user a $1 - and each time you bid, you are out a dollar. That's part of the fun. It is possible to win these high end bags for more than 90% off the cost of retail. I personally have won two bags on the site. They are real, authentic bags. The site is legit and it was MY decision how much I wanted to bid on each auction. No one "scammed" me into buying bids or pushing the bid button. If you don't understand the simple concept of pay to bid, or understand why these auctions can take an exorbitant amount of time to actually win, then stick with eBay. But stop crying foul or saying it's a scam. It's not.
