DealDash Dashboard – Explained

Your DealDash dashboard is a very important part of your DealDash experience. If you’re just getting started it may look a little complicated.

If you go to the main page of your dashboard you will see the most important things right away – the items that you have won that are awaiting payment, your scheduled BidBuddies, and your bookmarked auctions. It’s important to be sure to check in with your dashboard’s home screen so you don’t accidentally forget to pay for an auction and lose the right to purchase the auction that you won.

If you look at the picture above, or on your own DealDash dashboard we will go down the list of items and I will tell you what each one means.

Who’s on their limit? – You may win 9 auctions per week. If you’d like to see who has already won their 9 auctions for the week you can pay 1 bid and see the list of “Who’s on their limit”.
Public profile – This is the small section where you can choose your avatar and write a quick bio sentence or two about yourself. This avatar and your bio will flash on the screen when you bid so others can see it while you are the highest bidder.
Buy bids – Pretty self-explanatory, this is where you can purchase bids.
Buy It Now History – This is where you can see what items that you have “BINned” for retail price and received your bids back.
Transaction history – This is where you can see the bids that you have bought, received back from BINning, and gotten from participating in social media postings.
Bidding history – This is where you can see what you have been spending your bids on.
Won auctions – Also pretty self-explanatory, you can see what you have won in the past.
My orders – This is where you can see all of the items you have ordered, both from winning and BINning. There will also be tracking numbers with links to track your item when they are available. You will be able to see tracking numbers on most items except lower value gift cards, which are just sent by regular postal mail.
Account details – You can see your saved credit cards here.
Bookmarked auctions – You can see what auctions that you have bookmarked. You can bookmark an auction by either booking a BidBuddy for it, or clicking the little yellow star in the upper right hand corner.
Contact support – This is the last item on your dashboard list. If you click this you will be taken to a form where you submit a support ticket for anything from technical questions, refunds, or enquiring where your item that you ordered is currently located.

So my dear DealDashers, that is your DealDash dashboard, demystified. Pay attention to what you’re doing, check out the auctions and see what you would really like to bid on, try some easier auctions to build up knowledge, and you’ll be winning awesome stuff before you know it! See you on DealDash everyone! Good luck and happy bidding.

Does your family go through a lot of dishwashing detergent? My family sure does! We use both the dishwasher detergent as well as the regular liquid dishwashing soap for the pots and pans. We are a family of 5, so we make a lot of dirty dishes and go through the detergent very quickly. The great news is that DealDash has dishwashing detergent up for bid! They even have my favorite kind, Dawn, in both types – dishwasher detergent and regular detergent. We go through one of each every month or so, this is a great item to bid on and be willing to BIN. Remember, if you don’t win you can always BIN (Buy It Now and get all of your bids back.) If you’d like to bid on dish detergent, just go to this link here.

How Does DealDash Compare?

When thinking about how DealDash compares to other bidding sites, I think you would agree with me that DealDash is the best! I’ll tell you why.

First off, DealDash is user friendly. DealDash is extremely welcoming of new bidders and explains everything very simply in an up-front way so there are no misunderstandings how the bidding process works. There are even videos explaining how the bidding process works. Check out DealDash ‘s official YouTube page at this link right here to see their videos. Or you could watch the DealDash video that I made explaining everything at this link right here.

Secondly, DealDash has amazingly responsive and friendly customer service and support. I have emailed them a few times about various issues and questions about DealDash and I have always received an email back within a day, and sometimes I even received a phone call! Another wonderful thing about DealDash customer service is whenever I have interacted with them they have never tried to pressure me to buy a single bid. Other penny auction sites used to call and email me weekly to hard sell into buying bids that I wasn’t interested in buying at that moment. The final straw for me with them was when they told me that if I bought $1,000 worth of bids from them over their phone they would “help” me win an auction. That’s cheating. Which brings me to the next point.

DealDash is totally transparent and honest with everyone. All bidders the same chance and opportunity to win auctions. There are no “special” bidders, whoever is willing to spend their bids to win the auction will be the winner. There are no “bots” placing fake bids on DealDash to help certain people win. Whoever places the final bid when the clock hits zero is the winner.

Now that you have heard some of the big differences between DealDash and other bidding sites I’m sure that you want to go check out DealDash! Good luck and happy bidding everyone!
