Are You Having a Little Trouble Winning on DealDash?

DealDash is very simple to use but can be tricky to master. If you’re having trouble winning, then read this article.

No matter if you’re a new DealDash player or an “old hand” at auctions, everyone can have a tough time winning auctions sometimes. It can feel like we can get on a losing streak for no reason whatsoever, and it can be hard to break out of it. It might not be you, it can just be the ebb and flow of the auction tides. There are a few things that you can do to improve your situation, though, so read on for more information from DealDash.

You Might Be Missing the Best Auctions

You can’t be a winner on DealDash unless you find an auction that you want to bid on. DealDash doesn’t always have things listed at the same times day in and day out. For example, if your item of choice is a new set of cutlery for the kitchen and you see it up for auction one morning that doesn’t mean that the cutlery is always up for bid in the morning. The next time you see cutlery could be at 10PM or 4AM, you never know.

What you need to do to get around this conundrum is to do a search for cutlery, and set an alert for each cutlery set that you like. Setting an alert is super simple. After you’ve found the cutlery set (or whatever it is that you want!) click on the item to open up its own auction page. Next, look on the right side of the screen. There will be a blue button that says “Alert Me”. Click on the “Alert Me” button, then when the item is coming up for auction DealDash will send you an email. Once you’ve done this you can be sure that you won’t miss the auction that you really want to bid on from DealDash. Just knowing when the items you want to bid on are coming up for auction can be a big step in winning them.

Make Sure You Snag the Free Bids

If you’re not winning enough auctions, maybe you just don’t have enough bidding power behind you. If you’d like extra bidding power, then you should make sure that you’re taking advantage of the free bids offered by DealDash. There are many different ways that you can snag free bids from DealDash . You can bid on items to fill up your free bid meter, signing in to DealDash and bidding every day, or even try your hand at entering one of the contests that DealDash offers. The newest contest is called the “Best idea of the month” contest, and you can win 500 bids for sending in your idea to improve DealDash. The more free bids that you receive from DealDash means you can bolster your bidding power in an auction.

The Perfect Sip & Bid Party With Wine Items on DealDash

Just as soon as the Halloween costumes are put out for clearance sale, the official start to the holiday shopping season begins. Despite the fact that the shopping list for the Thanksgiving feast hasn’t even gone from pen to paper yet, everyone seems in a frenzy to shop ‘til they drop! I’ve decided to just sit back and chill with a glass of wine and create my own “Sip and Bid” party. With a little browsing, I found the most amazing wine-related items on DealDash. Check them out with me.

Wine Glasses and More

Deal Dash has elegant crystal glassware in your choice of white and red wine glasses, champagne glasses and brandy snifters. While I love the purported health benefits of red wine, I recently found my absolute favorite brand and type of wine to be a smooth semi-sweet white wine made in the Finger Lakes of New York state. So for me, the choice is clear—I need both types of wine glasses.

A Stylish Pour

Along with the fantastic glasses available on DealDash, they also have decanters and carafes for that stylish and sophisticated pour at the dinner table. If you’re looking to impress, here’s a great addition to the collection.

Wine Racks and Wooden Bottle Holders

As far as storing those yummy bottles, DealDash has a couple of great options. There’s the handmade wire rack and wooden bottle holders that will look amazing as part of your home and dining décor.

The Perfect Wine Cabinet

If you’re reaaaaally into wines, DealDash has an amazing wine cabinet that stores up to 12 bottles of wine in a showcasing fashion. With this piece, it would be a perfect accompaniment to that wine of the month club you’ve been dying to try.

Store and More

Is the wine cabinet just right or do you want to go bigger? If so, check out the spectacular coffee table that holds up to 24 bottles of wine! This one is truly amazing for the wine lover in your life.

Bundle Up

DealDash has some great bundles that either contain some of the items listed above so be sure to look for those super savings auctions, too!

Keep it Chill

The perfect way to store wine, of course, is in a chilled environment. Be on the lookout at DealDash for wine cellars and coolers specifically designed to keep your classic vino at just the right storage temperatures.

Make you sip and bid responsibly and be sure to set your Bookmarks and Alerts when you find just the right wine-related products for you or your loved ones this holiday season. Happy bidding on DealDash!

Tips From a Winning Bidder on her Two Year DealDash-iversary

It’s no secret that I love DealDash. I signed up five years ago and it took me three years before I actually bought a bid pack and gave it a try. Now it’s my two year “DealDash-iversary” and with that, I’d love to share what I’ve learned from being an active DealDash bidder and hope others will gain some nugget of bidding wisdom from my experiences.

Your First Wins

What I’ve learned about winning is sort of like your first love. You always remember it, but it isn’t always your sweetest. The first time I bid on DealDash, I won three $10 gift cards back-to-back within minutes. I probably spent 10 bids and less than $1 total for $30 worth of gift cards. It was amazing and I was hooked!

Your Greatest Wins

My greatest wins, in all honesty, have been many! The wins I’ve remembered most are a new item I tried dozens and dozens of times to win and finally got and the unexpected big-ticket win I randomly took a chance on and won with just two bids. Wins are great no matter what, but there will be ones you remember with great fondness.

The Great DealDash Learning Curve

When I think back to when I started bidding on DealDash and now, the difference is vast. One of the biggest things I have learned as an active bidder is that there is always something to learn. The tools are endless and available (Winners tab, Previous winners information for individual items, research on best days/times to bid,etc.) to help you navigate the waters and come out with some great wins.

The Best in Customer Service

If it were not for the great Customer Support department at DealDash, I most certainly would have bid goodbye to my Bid Buddy a long time ago. Thankfully, though, I was never afraid to reach out to them to ask questions and voice frustrations and suggestions to the team. They have always represented themselves with a professional, caring, “customer first” demeanor that has kept me sane and bidding! Don’t ever be afraid to reach out to them.

The #1 Must-Have for any DealDash Bidder

In my opinion, if you don’t have patience, you shouldn’t be bidding. It is often a waiting game and if you don’t have patience, you will tend to get very frustrated and overwhelmed. You have to understand the process, tips and techniques of bidding before jumping in feet first. But patience is invaluable when bidding.

Attitude is Everything

Along with patience, a positive attitude goes a LONG way in bidding. There are jumpers—or worse, stompers—and experienced bidders to contend with, among other things. You have to bid with a “win some lose, lose some, but I am going to try like heck to win” attitude, know when to hold ’em and know when to fold ’em. Not taking things personal and persevering with a positive attitude is everything.

The Best Advice I Ever Received on DealDash

The best advice I ever received on DealDash was actually from a Bidder Bio that read, “Thankfully there’s another auction just like this one right around the corner.” That simple sentence made a bell go off in my head that said, “Don’t stress! You can bid on this item again soon!” That helped me relax and I just kept persevering again and again until I won the item I wanted. You rarely win on the first try—but it sure is great when you do!

I sincerely hope you enjoy the successes I have on DealDash over the past year with a little bit of helpful hints and a whole lot of wins! Celebrate your own DealDash-iversary in style and win something great for yourself!
