I've been playing this since 2012 and have won many items. It's a great way to purchase items at a low cost.
I don't really believe in this form of online gambling, but if you are going to play the slot machine bigdeal is a little more fair I think that most of these auction sites. Read about them on techcrunch

I don't like buying bids, not wining anything, It's not fun if you can't win something, A big waste of money. Good for you, Bad for me! You do n't even have that much to bid for. I use to win some times, now I end up buying the thing I bid on. Tried of that.
Not realizing that Canadians could not receive winnings on this auction I bought bids and they refunded all my purchases of my bids right the next day when I realized. They are an honest site and really fast and efficient when it comes to customer service and I hope one day I can participate on there site. Thanks M L
Over all I enjoy this sight I wave Gotton a lot of wounderful things. But it just seems at times I get confused on how thing work. But deal dash has been very fare with fixing my miss under standings thank you for you help agin
Deal Dash is a fair site and I like your fast free shipping. However you should change the name to Deal Crawl not Dash. Most of your auctions take a long time to end. Some sites end the bidding for people that make enough bids to reach the retail price. Letting people pay more than retail is bad for them and unfair to the bidders. I say once to make enough bids to buy it then cut them off. Base the price of bids at 17 cents or even 15 cents because of free bids that are earned.
I have been lucky enough to win some great items on DealDash. A portable air conditioner that we have been looking at to buy. A beautiful picture for one of my granddaughters, an old timey clock for daughter, Bluetooth speaker for husband, backpack, jewelry, pillow and silverware for other grandchildren and great grandchildren. Thank you DealDash!
I say this because although my issue was addressed in a timely manner I am very displeased with the results. I bid and lost on a $379 messenger bag and after I purchased it the zipper broke. I am very unhappy with the quality of this item and after expressing this I was not able to return it since the "grace" period passed. I could spend the same on a top designer bag and if the zipper broke there would be no issue with a refund
I think the items they offer are overpriced. I just signed up today to try it out, if don't win any auction after I spend the 500 bids I purchased, will not buy anymore. See screenshot https://snipboard.io/UZw7bx.jpg

Please reach out to us at support@dealdash.com so we may assist further, we're here 24/7. Have a great day!
I have tried about six other penny auction sites and I am totally sold on DealDash as being the best penny auction site. DealDash bid price is very reasonable. It's BuyItNow option makes it totally risk free because it doesn't force you to buy the item plus a bunch of bids at regular price. DealDash has always, always, always treated me right. Word of advice to those who are not having success, winning requires a lot of patience and strategy. Set your limit, do the math and prepare to monitor and bid on your desired item patiently over possibly a long period of time. As a contest perk that DealDash runs on Facebook, winners can submit a photo for a chance to win a $500 gift card. Well, I was fortunate enough to be one of those winners, week 49.
Thank you DealDash for being a legit and generous penny auction site.

Great tips of advice, thank you for sharing! Recommend to read this review for some tips to win auctions.
It's ok but when it comes up to the ending second it like takes forever to until another bid where count down from 10 goes extremely fast, other wise very competive bidding not like another site I go on you need to advertise better different approach your losing customers not to be negative as soon as my bids are gone I'm unsubscribing. Sorry it was fun
I was bidding not knowing that each bid took money away from my card. I was under the impression that if i don't win the bid I still have money. But to my dismay each bid cost me. The meter at the bottom encouraged you to get a level or something. I was just kind of lost. And to pay 34 dollars and have nothing to show for it, wow. Never again.
Hi Rhuesel, sorry for the misunderstanding. Bids are purchased in packs of different sizes, and in advance, so each bid placed does not charge or remove money from your card. If you don't win the item, you have the option to buy it at regular price to get both the item and your bids back.
We'd like to give you a second chance therefore have returned 200 bids to your account to try again! If you have any questions just email our customer support team and we'll be happy to help you.
The site has gotten really bad with to many overbidding the value of the item. Ex. 456 bids for a $25 gift card. There should be a limit when a person bids more than the value of the product, then it automatically cuts them out and make them decide wether or not to purchase the item. There is rarely any good deals anymore.
If you have the time to watch and study DealDash everyday, you'll start to see patterns and strategies. Don't just jump in and play because you will get burned every time. You can increase your odds by checking out blogs like DealDash411.blogspot.com... they have real time updates, player profiles, hints, tips, and strategies to help you increase your odds. If you learn to play smart, you can have alot of fun. It takes PATIENCE. But that blog is awesome!
It appears that this site has become a retail bid site. It was not like that before and just a few months ago. I have found another auction site and it appears to be better. I will let all my Facebook friends know about the new site.
Of all the penny auction sites used, DealDash has provided the most enjoyable platform. All wins and purchases were delivered as expected and in an acceptable timeframe. The promotions of 1/2 price and 'Free' wins are great and switch up the bidding strategy.
Wishing DealDash continued success.
When I presented my cc info they charged me 36.00 I got back in touch with them and asked them why I was charged this amount. I asked for a refund and gladly did so with out any hesitation
Very professional. Will do business with them anytime.
I have been trying to contact customer service for four days now with no avail. I have emailed and called constantly. I am not happy with this site and with their "money back guarantee " I would like the money back that was wasted on this site!
Hi Melissa, I'm sorry it took over the weekend for our customer support team to reply back to your support ticket however I see your refund has been processed in full for you now. We hope you'll give us another try and remember if you don't win an auction you can buy it now and get your bids back.
I have won many items so far. I have found the items are of superior quality. Happy so far. If you bid only what you can afford, then you will be okay. I would recommend this site to my friends and family.
As a first time user, I had no luck bidding. The completed auctions show people winning for very few dollars... however, when I have bid on some of the same items the bid got way out of range and I had to drop out, you did give me back my first bid pak... but I've had no luck in winning anything at a low price. Even the real cheap items have gone over retail inmany cases. This makes no sense at all. Why would someone pay more that the item is worth just to win a bid?
I guess if I had won a bid I would feel differently. Ot sure if im goilg to continue after I use up my remaining bids.
Hi Rick, sorry to hear you have not had any luck winning auctions. Most people do not over bid and pay more than the item is worth. One of the best strategies customers share with us is to calculate in advance how many bids it makes sense to use in the auction when comparing to the Buy it Now price. Keep to that budget and book your BidBuddy. Hopefully you will win the auction with much less bids however if you don't, simply Buy it Now to get your item plus all the bids used in the auction. Remember many people value their bids differently as they may have won bids or received free bids through a promotion. If you would like any assistance with bidding strategies please feel welcome to contact us and we'll gladly help you out. Sincerely, Dave

Business History
After one such letdown experience, spending $50 on a pay-to-participate auction site with nothing to show for it, our founder decided to create a fair and honest alternative to bidding fee auctions, where losing bidders don’t have to lose the money they spent bidding. That is how Deal Dash was born in 2009. Today, over 1,000 brand named products are discovered and won by customers every day!
Bid in our online auctions to catch a deal and if you don't win the auction, you can buy it now and keep on bidding!
