I LOVE LOVE LOVE. Deal Dash! Great selection of things to bid on, great customer service, lots of chances to get free bids, bids are sold at a good price, sometimes as low as. 14 each. They are always running a little something extra like being able to get free bids 2X, 3X, or even 5X faster. Love those free bids! You have the option to buy it now if you dont win the item AND they will give you all of the bids that you used for that item back. You cant beat that. The shipping is always free and fast! You can track your orders to see when they will arrive---everything except the gift cards. They inform you by email when your stuff has been shipped also. I could go on but i think everyone gets how i feel about Deal Dash. The only complaint that i have is that the BIN or buy it now prices on items (except gift cards) are usually higher than they are on places like Amazon, Wal Mart, or Best Buy. That's really the only negative thing I have to say. So try it, youlllove it!

I called in for a refund due to my error,
Kim was very understanding to my concerns and kept me calm when I thought I was doomed she assured me she could fix my issue and that she did all while being very at tentative and kind throughout the entire time till she completed the correction I had made, Kim is an asset to your company I wish there were more CSR, s in the world that would mimic her knowledge of conducting a pleasant call all in the name of resolution which is all the customer wants 10 thumbs up to Kim thank you for all your understanding.

Scam site being manipulated by it's operators to make money. Take my case for example. I tried numerous time to win many different auctions at many different times after reading all the information I could on how to win. No luck. I noticed that the bids seemed to get greater on the auctions I was bidding so I tried an experiment and found a product that was not very popular and one that had gone for very low bids literally every time it was won over the past 6 months. I put 5 bids in near the time out then waited until it was 50% over the highest bid that had EVER been used to win. Now all of a sudden there are a couple mysterious bidders against me. Of course I could not win. I have no proof but it appears that Swoopo (and probably all other auctions) have inside people running up the bids and not requiring them to pay. Then the same item is listed again.
Also, check out all the reviews of Swoopo that say it is legit. They are all sites created by swoopo or some similar site created just for this purpose. People, nothing comes for free and if it's too good to be true... well...

I wouldnt waste your money or time. Once you get past the first couple of stages its like they open the door and you see the real deal dash i lost 160.00 within 24 hoursjust trying to get small items. You have the same bidders over and over wining and that 5 dollar jump in doesnt change anything everyone throws a bid in before the 5 bucks and they wait until youve bet most of your bids then jump in when its close to the amount ( usually 3 times its worth) and run you out of bids or force you to buy more. So no i wouldnt reccomend this to anyone unless you have plenty of money to throw away!

Hi Jackie. I'm sorry that you did not have a good experience on DealDash. We always recommend our users to start small and keep to a budget until they learn more about auction strategies. You can always check the http://www.dealdash.com/tactics-and-tips
Most of our customers do win, but maybe you’ve had an unlucky run or perhaps your bidding strategy has not been in line with your tolerance for risk.
I would strongly encourage you to bid on some of the lower value items to learn how the auctions work and take advantage of the Buy it Now feature if you do not win an auction. This virtually removes any risk of bidding and leads to an overall better experience of using the site based on the customer data we've gathered since our February 2009 launch. If there's any questions or concerns we can help you with, please let us know.
I always enjoy my time bidding on items. What would be nice and improve your chance of winning is to lower the $5 bidder limit.
Date of experience: April 19, 2024
Hi Daniel! Thank you for sharing your experience! We value your feedback regarding the $5 bidder limit. We do run some auctions where the No Jumper limit is lower than $5 so I recommend keeping an eye out for those! Your input is invaluable in shaping our platform for the better. If you have any further recommendations or feedback, don't hesitate to let us know! Happy bidding!
It has become harder and harder to get a good deal on any item on DealDash. I find myself overpaying for what I could have purchased the same item on Amazon or at SAMS Club:-(

Hi Herbert, we're very sorry to hear that you're finding it harder to score the deals you would like on DealDash. As a competitive bidding platform, it can sometimes be challenging to win an auction, especially when there's a high demand for a particular item. We truly value you letting us know how you feel and regret any frustration you've been experiencing lately. We've reached out to you directly to gather more information and assist further. Looking forward to hearing back from you!
Everything I have "won" or bought BIN has been as described, received very rapidly and in excellent condition. While the likelihood of getting really good deals is more chance, thus gambling, than skill, thought process or sly bidding the site is as advertized and if one understands that on average they will have to spend a lot of bids before they "win" and will do a lot of BIN buying they should be happy and honestly served by DD.

I am shocked. You need to put the item like it is. I paid for a broom which looked like a regular broom. I got it and it's a childs broom. Very disapointing.
Next item you had was legal pads. They came and they were note pads. Very disappomting.
Back months ago, I sent an item back by UPS and I have not heard a word from them. It was a turkey fryer which I paid over 100.00 for and they know nothing about it. I didn't open it, just returned it by UPS. So I don't have any paper work. I bought it back in November.
I have got several items which I usually end up paying for and they aren't as you see them on DD. They are like a childs instead of an adult.
For the most part tho, I have been completely happy with you, expecially the shipping is very quick.
I need to find out where my money is for that Turkey Fryer.
Date of experience: June 25, 2014
Hi Ruth,
I'm sorry to hear you did not notice the item descriptions and therefore were surprised with the items you received. The item descriptions are pulled directly from our supplier and if you go back to review the descriptions you'll see it is a lobby/toy broom with a 39 inch wood handle and a set of six 5x8 inch note pads with legal ruling.
As for the Turkey Fryer, when you asked us about this it looks like we replied back with instructions to simply return this to your local Best Buy and they'd provide you with a refund or store credit. I'll be happy to have this looked into further for you and have our customer support team reach out to you.
Sincerely,
Dave
I did not enjoy my experience. In fact, I have quit the site. I found it a waste of time, received little value, and quite frankly it is boring. Much to much time wasted on the site.
I like your idea of giving back bids but not in your method. That is where the time is wasted.
I suggest something like bid rewards by the number of bids. Or something that would move the bidding alone.

Hi Albert, I'm very sorry to hear this. I'd be very happy to talk with you about your reward suggestions and how you think we may be able to improve. Most of the people we have talked to really enjoy the Buy it Now and Get Your Bids Back along with the possibility to collect Free Bids for Time as Highest Bidder.
Please contact our support team or send me a direct message. Sincerely, Dave
This website is easy enough to win at and a great bidding experience, but what is the point if you NEVER RECEIVE your items. There has been much talk about the dealdash company having to expand, etc... But they should not have people bidding on items that they do not already have and can ship out when the people have won. Waiting over a month for gift cards (WHICH THEY SHOULD ALREADY HAVE IN STOCK) is unacceptable. DO NOT use this site unless you are willing to wait a very long time for the things you win.

I purchased an item on Deal Dash consisting of two specialty (Veho Kasa) light bulbs. One of the bulbs works (although the app that controls it is inconsistent) but the other does not work at all. I did not discover that the 2nd one didn't work for over a month since I did not try to use it right away. When I called the Veho Kasa Co they could not fix the problem and said I had to call Deal Dash. In an online chat w/ Aleksei@ Deal Dash I had the best customer svc interaction of my 40+ years of adult life. He did not question anything about the purchase but immediately said he would send out a replacement within a few days. With a 3 minute online chat and then 2minutes later when I got the confirmation the problem was resolved with absolutely NO hassle whatsoever. WOW!

A penny auction that is fair and honest. There are no gimmicks. Everything is real and has rules regulations to make playing fair for ALL individuals playing. Best thing is that you win real quality products. Since April 2018 ( Now October 2018) I have won 171 auctions. My first win was a 48" flat screen TV and when installing it at our new apartment the cable guy was so impressed with the quality he said he'd check out Deal Dash. And free FedEx shipping! What more could you ask for?! There customer service is next to none. They work with you above and beyond the call of duty anytime and anywhere you maybe want to have answer to questions, dispute or just to say "Hi!" They have become a second family to ours and when you have a company with such empathy and compassion as does the whole team at Deal Dash it makes the world a little bit of a better place. Grant it there are companies that are big and offer lots of things. But Deal Dash is what it is and can match the big boys over quality and service and customer service just the same, or NO or rather better than any I have come in contact with for many many years. They have what other companies need; compassion, patience, listening to their customers, and knowing that they aim to please their customers they service consistently every day and night 24/7! That's why people keep coming back. That's why I'm proud to say that I'm a Deal Dasher!

You are awesome.
We appreciate your invaluable place in the DealDash community.
Let me know if there anything I can do to further assist you.

Your friends at DealDash.
I always have a blast bidding at deal dash. I love everything but, other bidders not letting the clock tick down to 1 or 2 before bidding because your meter level don't have time to fill up.

Better than good but less than great! Customer service was not very helpful or reassuring when a mistake in the shipping address was reported.
It was eventually corrected after exchanging 3 e-mails.

I had several questions in different e mails & their reply was almost instant. They were so very patient with me as some questions were like, dud, how did I miss that.

Have a fantastic day!
Why would anyone spend such a significant amount of money on bidding for merchandise that they never get in the first place WHEN if they just saved that money they spent on BIDDING…they'd be able to BUY IT at TARGET?! This is as ridiculous as people who sit at slot machines on Vegas spending thousands of dollars trying to win that very same money they just put into the casino! Nothing is for free people…work hard and save your money!

DealDash does not make any claims to winning items for free but we do offer FREE shipping and the chance to win items at a GREAT deal!
I have gotten a few good deals. The draw back is the people that have monopolized the site with wealth and bidding in a way to make others lose out on time for free bids or having more bids than the average person can contend with. The auction of BID PACKS, seems to be a way to get poor people to try and BUY more bids with BIDS they already purchased with the hope of being able to get a good deal on REAL merchandise. I would like to see more variety in the products offered. Love to get a set of knives and some of the fishing gear. But more BID PACKS are on auction than the good stuff causing a BIDDING WAR for those scarce items.
Thank You for hearing my feed back. Hope it helps.

Have the best day!
I have won the ability to purchase some nice items at good prices through Deal Dash, and for that, I am grateful. It's a fun bidding site and the daily challenges and specials keep me interested. There are items of very good quality on Deal Dash, and rarely have I been disappointed with the quality of my purchases. I do wish to express frustration with those bidders who bully others by setting their profiles to be intimidating. In addition, there are a few seasoned bidders who attempt to "talk" to other bidders, even using further intimidating techniques. It is truly in poor taste, in my opinion, that this is allowed. I wish that each bidder would follow Deal Dash's request to "write something friendly about yourself here," or to write something non-threatening, if they don't care to get at all personal. I'm not easily offended, however, I, like many others, can be intimidated against bidding on items. I do know that there are several people whom I will not even bother bidding against because I know them to be bullies, (which is not okay), or have simply done my homework and know that there is no way to win against them, (which is okay, because they work at winning). All in all, I like Deal Dash. My adult children's Christmas will be quite good because of my Deal Dash use, this year.

Bid on auctions and save. All auctions start at $0 with no minimum price reserve. Everything must go! DealDash is the fair and honest bidding site. Founded in 2009, millions of bidders have enjoyed Deal Dash auctions since.
Established in 2009, DealDash is the longest operating site of its kind in the United States. Before DealDash was founded, millions of Americans tried out 1st generation bidding fee auctions. These first generation auctions left many people with a poor experience.
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!
Great to hear Daisy, thank you for the nice feedback.
