How Do I Love DealDash? Let Me Count the Ways…

DealDash is a jewel among the other bidding sites out there. There are different types of auction sites, but DealDash is the best!

DealDash is the best “entertainment shopping” and online auction site out there. Each one works a little differently, but DealDash is a different breed of online auction site. Here is a quick overview of how bidding on DealDash works:

Bidders pay a fee to purchase bids. The first bid pack is at full price, which is .60 per bid. Subsequent bid packs are much cheaper per bid, normally in the range of .14-.18 per bid. Don’t worry, though, if you are unsatisfied (you won’t be!) you can contact customer service and they will refund your first bid pack purchase. Just email or hit the “Live support” button to get assistance.

After you have purchased your bid pack you’re ready to bid! On DealDash Each bid increases the price of the item by one penny and extends the time of the auction by 10 seconds. Other auctions sites may increase the price by a few cents instead of just .01, or increase the time of the auction by 30 seconds or more.

I haven’t Seen You Around DealDash

Hello there new bidder! I’m glad to see that you have decided to give DealDash a try. Here are some things to keep in mind when playing on DealDash.

Being a new bidder on DealDash is a very exciting experience. If you’ve been bidding on other auction sites, you are really in for a treat, because DealDash is a very different and very special website. There are a few things that you should know before you jump right in, though. Read on for some important DealDash information.

Buying Bids

When you first decide that you would like to be a bidder on DealDash, you need to open an account. This is very easy to do, you just need to sign up with your name and email.

After you sign up, you need to buy your first bid pack. Your first bid pack of 60 bids is $36. Don’t feel suspicious that you need to buy bids, because if for some reason you don’t enjoy DealDash this amount will be fully refunded to you. There is a 100% satisfaction guarantee, and if you decide that DealDash isn’t for you then just contact customer service and they will help you.

What Do You Do Next?

After buying your first bid pack you can bid in auctions. Typically there are some special auctions available on the main auction page for new bidders. These “newbie” auctions have less competition and are easier to win. After you have won a few auctions and used up your initial bid pack you will want to buy another bid pack, and luckily Deal Dash is usually running some sort of sale that lowers the price of bids to somewhere between .13-.18.

After you have won a few auctions and used up your initial bid pack you will want to buy another bid pack, and luckily Deal Dash is usually running some sort of sale that lowers the price of bids to somewhere between .13-.18. On very special occasions such as Christmas and New Year’s Day the bid price has even dropped to .12!

BIN, Explained

“What in the world is BIN?” You might ask. That’s a great question! BIN is an acronym for “Buying It Now”. If you have been bidding on an item that you really want and you have bid so much that you have spent the retail price of the item in bids, all you have to do is hit the “Buy It Now” button. After you pay for the item Deal Dash will give you back all of the bids you used trying to win the item. You will also receive fast, free shipping on your item. So you see, BIN is really the “secret sauce” that makes DealDash so special.

Shopping on DealDash is Spelled F-U-N!

Do you know what they call online auctions such as our favorite website, DealDash? They call it “Entertainment Shopping”!! Do you know why?

They call it entertainment shopping because it’s fun and entertaining, of course! Would you rather get dressed in your warmest clothing, drive through the snow, clomp around a huge store, then struggle your way home again…Or would you rather shop on DealDash, in your PJs, sitting in your favorite chair in front of the fireplace?! I don’t know about you, but I’ll take the second option, please.

DealDash is a Fun Pastime

I can spend hours at a time on DealDash without even bidding, it’s a hobby of mine to just “window shop” on DealDash, there are so many things to look at and watch on DealDash without even spending a single bid. I love to look at the upcoming auctions, read the descriptions, read the newly implemented product reviews, and see what amounts of money that the item has won for in the past.

Look at the Winners, Spot the Trends

Looking at the Winner’s tab can be an excellent learning tool to further your “DealDash Education.” You can see the exact deals that people have been getting that day, try to spot the trends, and bid accordingly. For example, if you look at the Winner’s tab and you see that jewelry is selling for less than a dollar then you will know that it’s a good day to bid on jewelry.

Alternately, if you see items that normally sell for less than $5 selling for $10+ then you know to stay away from those types of auctions that day. It’s not an exact science, but you will have a pretty good idea of how the auctions are going and you can bid accordingly.

Bidding Without Monetary Risk is Fun

How is there no monetary risk? Luckily, DealDash is a new breed of auction site and has come up with the amazing solution of Buy It Now. Buy It Now is referred to as “BIN” by DealDash, and is really a lifesaver if you feel that you’ve bid over your budget. When you’re in the midst of an auction, and see that you have put too many bids in to make good financial sense then just BIN it!

BINning an auction is easy and only takes a moment on DealDash. In the bidding box there will be a button that says “Buy It Now for …. and get …. bids back”. When you are ready to stop bidding, hit that BIN button and you will be able to buy the item that you were bidding on for its retail value, and you will get every single bid back that you placed, to use on another auction. You get the bids back immediately after you pay for your BIN auction, you can use them right away if you’d like. In addition to getting all of your bids back, you will also get free shipping! Free shipping is available on everything!

I hope that this DealDash Blog article has been helpful in showing you how fun entertainment shopping can be when you know how to use the BIN safety net. Be sure to visit our other blogs, DealDashTips.com and DealDashReviewed.com for more useful DealDash information. Now go bid on DealDash! Good luck and happy bidding everyone!

Is It Magic? Nope, Just DealDash

It’s not magic, it’s DealDash entertainment shopping! Here are some great things that are just par for the course on DealDash.

DealDash may not be magical, but it is a very special website. DealDash is the longest running pay-to-bid site in the United States, which is important to note because this means that DealDash is not just going to “disappear” one day with your bids.

There have been other pay-to-bid auction sites around the internet, and many of them have not lasted very long at all. DealDash is different, as of next month DealDash will have been in business for 8 years. That is many years of happy customers, and many more to come in the future.

Exactly How is DealDash Different?

Aside from the longer lifetime of the website, there are a few other very important differences from other auction websites. DealDash differs from its predecessors as well as a few other current sites mainly in that losing bidders are given an option to BIN (Buy It Now) any item for the retail price and receive back all of the bids that they spent.

The BIN option was a huge breakthrough for many bidders that were reluctant to use a website like DealDash due to the fear that they would spend money with nothing to show for it. Since DealDash has the BIN option that problem has been completely solved. Thanks DealDash!
