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 know what specific experience I experienced on 12/7, however, I have, over the years filled most of my gifting needs through my Deal Dash wins. The quality of the products have always been very good and there is something here for everyone. I have only had 1 or 2 hiccups over the years.but the staff is always very simpathetic and quick to make the situation right. I will continue to be one of Deal Dash's biggest fans!
The same people win all the time! They appear to have unlimited bids, and enter multiple auctions at once. Do not like the new format and doubt I will continue playing once my bids are gone. It's just too hard to win these days!
I have had very good response with my Deal Dash purchases. The items are as advertised and most often arrive very quickly. If there is a problem, they are quick to find a solution. My only complaint is that some will continually bid many times over the value of the merchandise, just to win. I like a deal as well as anyone, and the Buy it Now is an excellent opportunity to still purchase the items, but with excessive OVER bidding, it spoils the fun of the auction.

The auction lasts too long! Who really has time to sit and bid for days upon days! The site claims it gives out deals but if I wanted to buy the item it now I could just go to the store and pay the full price... That's not a deal in my book but... Curiosity killed this cat for sure! I've learned my lesson.

In five years, I won four auctions. All on the first day:
A set of pens that no one else bid on, so I paid one cent.
A nice Sheaffer pen that no one else bid on. Paid one cent.
Calligraphy pens. One cent
100 bid pack. One cent.
Enthused, I immediately bought 200 more bids. "This is great!"
After that, I never won another auction. In some cases, I'd bid on gift cards. Say, a $25 Target card. After it got up to $15 or so, I'd drop out, as it was no longer worth it. But tracking them, I'd see bids go above $40 for a $25 card. In one case, a $10 gas card "sold" for over $100.
Does anybody really believe that actual humans are making these bids?
In my most recent auctions, where I set out to use up all of my remaining bids so that I could close my account, I noticed that I was down to bidding against three other "users" whose accounts had all been created that very day. After my bids ran out, they immediately stopped bidding against each other.
Quite a coincidence, eh?
My conclusion is that when you first sign up, you see legitimate auctions for legitimate low-priced items, but that ONLY you see those auctions. You win a few auctions, think this is great, and then will never win another auction again, unless you spend an insane amount of money. Is it fraud. No - they sent me the advertised items, with free shipping. Is it a scam? Absolutely.

Thank you for your review! Sorry to hear you're having trouble winning in the auctions! I can assure you that every participant on our platform is a real person, just like you, with no affiliation with DealDash. Our utmost priority has always been maintaining the integrity of our auctions. We would love to assist you further! Please reach out to us directly at support@dealdash.com because your feedback is invaluable to us as we strive to better our service. Looking forward to hearing back from you!
I believe DealDash is THE best auction site there is. The items up for bid are GOOD items, (good quality), the bids are reasonably priced, and delivery time on won auction items is really great!
I've dealt with customer service a couple of times, and they're incredible. The site itself has great incentives, without being convoluted.
I've truly enjoyed the site so far. I would comment further, but I've got to go check a couple of auctions right quick! Yes, I do love my DealDash!

I have gotten some good deals, so to speak, but most of them I have not received. I am waiting since before Halloween to receive some items I "won" on the site. And now it is almost Christmas. I also got some Christmas gifts for my granddaughter and I'm afraid they won't be here in time.

My friend turned me on to deal dash.com at first I thought it was a joke until his TV came in through the mail.so they made me a believer this is no scam I'm a real new customers to this and it was about to get started look forward to more reviews for me thanks Antonio

The anticipation of what will be up for auction is something all participants experience, The array of what is offered is a widely varied mix of merchandise and bid packs. It is difficult to peruse the items offered and not find at least one item that "you can't live without." At least that has been my experience. It's fun bidding against other participants to see who is the ultimate winner. That person then gets a brand new, still in the box, product at a very cheap price, and has it delivered for free to their home. What's not to like?

My personal experience at DealDash has been so much fun. I'm not really up on trendy new fast moving games and I have made a couple of mistakes. I had to call for assistance twice and I had the MOST amazing customer service ever. I spoke to a wonderful young man named James. James not only walked me through everything I needed assistance with, but he was a gentleman, curious and got back to me within three minutes of my call to Customer Service!
Wow- I was impressed! I've won three times and have only played just a few- I've told all my Senior friends about it and they love it.

Very reliable, started out small and won 3 gift cards which were delivered quickly. My big win is a 40" TV which took a little longer to be delivered but nevertheless, I have been notified that it is being delivered today! So far DealDash has been a fun reliable experience!

Thanks for being so kind! Hats off to dealdash! One of the best experiences I've had. I'm looking forward to wining more items for my new home. The Barrel Shack items will look awesome in my rustic ranch style home. I can't wait to decorate it! Thank you again dealdash!

I have had nothing but fun and success on dealdash. You would be well served to learn how to play the game before spending money to play (that would be like me joining a poker game). Very soon you learn what the deal is on the dash, and be answering the doorbell.
Now it's not all roses, I've been frustrated too. Sometimes I know when to walk away! That's what makes it still fun, and keeps me coming back.

Nice to hear Colleen. All the best in the up-coming auctions and hope you win some fantastic deals to give as gifts for the holidays.
I somehow had $64.00 removed from my bank account to "buy" bids! I did NOT authorize anything like this! I have contacted customer support 5 times now, to no response! I had intended to browse, possibly buy, but if one thinks about this, you must buy bids to bid on items that would cost that price thru Walmart, Amazon, ebay, etc. After buying bids, you've spent more than an item would cost anyway! THINK before you jump into this "GREAT" deal! It makes no sense & I'll NEVER use this site again!

So They make you buy bids to bid on an item. Its close to impossible to even win anything since every bid is worth a penny in bidding value. Then even with 500 bids ok so that means you can bid up to 5$ worth of bids. These items are cheap junk and the only valuable items I've seen are "more bids". But what good are bids if the items are junk. Do not spend money on this site.

This site is such a scam I can't believe it's legal! They say all this crap about getting items for so cheap but it's just to lure you in. Eventually in the end they have found a way for you to buy an item at regular price with the loop holes and bs they don't tell you about. Why hasn't the FBI taken you into investigation!

We are 100% legit, audited by Ernst & Young and have a maximum A+ rating with the BBB. I'd like to guide you through our website and answer all of your questions about the site. My email is adrian@dealdash.com
When I first started, I won several auctions. For the past month all I do is purchase bids which then go down the drain without any win. Maybe the competition is smarter or maybe just lucky and I am not. At some point it is like anything else, what is my return on investment. Right now it is very, very poor.

What a scam they totally rip you off. This is like a gaming site.the only one who is going to come out on top is dealdash. Wish I had researched more before they ripped me off for 36.00. This site should be banned.

Great site, I have been on these since the day one of the first site like this in the US and they were all good for a while then so many of then became crooked with bits etc so I stopped for a couple years. Discovered I had 3 free bids on this site and won immediately. Shipping was fast and free and have won a few smaller items since with spending very little money. Definately would recommend to others I don't trust any other site.

I have been bidding on DealDash for over a year now. I have won some, and lost some, but am happy overall. The last auction I won was for a Moissanite gemstone to replace one in a vintage ring. Great deal! Mostly I play around on DealDash for fun, but I've won outside lights, pots and pans, sheets, etc. so it's fun to get packages. And if you win something you don't really want, you can exchange the item for more bids and have more fun.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review for us Kathleen! I'm happy to hear of your great wins on DealDash, especially for the gemstone! We look forward to hearing more about your future wins, Happy Bidding :)
I have won literally thousands of dollars worth of wonderful products in the last year... and spent 1/4 of what I would have to purchase them all at retail! Two 17.5" Laptop computers for less than $100.00, Two Flat Screen TV's... 42"... one FREE and one I bought with gift cards I won for less than $50.00! There are so many... I can't begin to list them! Thanks DEAL DASH!

I received all my bids back which was the proper thing to do. I just lost out on a special Christmas gift for a special family member. Nothing I can do about it except hope you have another one for sale before Christmas. Thank you for taking care of the matter in a very timely manner. Patricia Waller

So far I have liked every product I have won on Deal Dash. Quality products. Good variety of items, easy checkout. Timely shipping. What's not to like.
Wish they would let us pick our own amount of bids to purchase. Sometimes I don't want 300 bids. Let me decide how many I want to purchase at a time.

I can not say enough good about these guys. When I win or buy they deliver quickly. Anytime I have had any type of problem they have also took the loose and never ask any question. You just can not find better service than that. If a customer can not get satisfaction from the DealDash team they can not be pleased. Love you guys and thanks for all your help.

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!
Hi Nicole, if you have the time and patience it's possible to get some really good deals and if you don't win you can just pay the same price for the item as you would at a store and get back all your bids to try again. This is why so many people enjoy shopping here. You get a chance to win a good deal and if not you can just buy the item at normal price and not lose anything.
