All DealDash Newbies, Start Here

Welcome to DealDash! If you’re just getting started, read on to find how DealDash works.

Welcome to DealDash. If you’re thinking of joining, or just joined recently, then here is a quick instructional blog article on how to get things started. It’s easy and fun to win great prizes and get awesome deals on DealDash. You can’t win if you don’t bid, though, so here are some simple instructions so you can get off bidding on the right foot. Read the rest of this article to find out more.

Think of a Name, Get Registered

Before you get registered on DealDash you’ll want to think of a username. You might find it a little trickier than you thought it would be – but that’s because DealDash has over 8 million registered users! But don’t worry, there are still plenty of names to choose from. Personally, I would suggest not using a username that you use on other websites, because sometimes it’s nice to go into “stealth mode” and not have anyone know who you are.

Getting registered takes just a couple of minutes. Just put in your username, your email, and a password, and you’re good to go. Later on you will fill out your other information such as your shipping address. After you have gotten registered then it’s time to buy bids.

Buy Bids

Bids are the currency that is used in the auctions on DealDash. Bids are for sale in a variety of amounts of bids. The regular price per bid is 60 cents, and your first bid pack purchase will be charged at this price. However, DealDash offers bid sales every day of the week where you can purchase bids from .13-.18 cents per bid. Typically on holidays the prices will be even lower. You just have to be check in and see what the price is every day, then buy bids or skip buying and wait for another day when the price is lower.

Search for a Product that You Need or Want

What do you want to win today? DealDash has so many different products that it would be impossible to list everything that is up for bid. However, I can tell you that there are kitchen items, outdoors and garage items, art, home decor, kid’s items, and gift cards.

All items sold on DealDash are brand new, sealed in the package, and come with manufacturer warranties. All of the items are clearly displayed on each auction page, some even have multiple pictures for you to check out. All of the items have excellent descriptions, and of course, you can always google the item you’re interested in to get consumer reviews or more information. DealDash prides itself on being honest and transparent, and always offers plenty of information on all of the products that are available for auction.

Bid, Bid, B-I-D

All auctions start at $0.00. Each time that a bidder places a single bid it adds one penny to the final price of the item. Each bid from you or anyone else restarts the timer to 10 seconds and allows people to place bids until the timer reaches 0 or is reset again by someone bidding. You can bid by clicking your cursor on the BID button, or use the free bidding tool that DealDash provides called the BidBuddy.

The BidBuddy is something that everyone should take advantage of – you can program it to bid as many times as you like, and you can watch it bid against the competition or step away from the computer, or even turn it off and go to sleep! This will come in extremely handy when you realize that some auctions can last days, depending on the popularity and retail price of the item.

Did You Win or Will You BIN?

Eventually, all auctions must end. The last person to bid is the winner of the auction and will pay the final auction fee that is displayed on the bidding screen. Sometimes DealDash offers half-off of all auctions or even FREE auctions. When you start bidding in an auction you never know if it’s going to be over in a matter of minutes or even days!

If you are planning on bidding on an item that you plan on buying anyway, you will want to think about going “all the way” and be willing to BIN (Buy It Now) if you don’t win. When you BIN the item for the retail price you get ALL of the bids back that you placed, as well as getting free shipping. BINning items are a great way to get “perpetual” bids, because if you only bid on items you’re willing to buy, then you will always get your bids back if you lose.

Examining DealDash Strategies for Fun

Have you been using the same old strategy on DealDash over and over again? Let’s look at some different strategies for winning auctions!

Learning about different types of DealDash strategies can be very helpful when you are bidding on DealDash. You can attempt to predict what other people are going to do when they’re bidding, and you can even implement other people’s strategies into your own. If you take a little bit of strategy from here and a little from there, then your strategy on DealDash is going to be very difficult for other people to figure out, which is a good thing for you! A little mystery is definitely a good thing when it comes to revealing yourself to other bidders on DealDash.

Be a Cautious Bidder

Before you start bidding in DealDash auctions it’s very important to figure out a bidding strategy to use. Being a cautious bidder is a great strategy that will result in saving lots of bids. You need to use patience and watch plenty of auctions before you make the decision to bid. The more auctions that you watch, the better skills that you will gain. The only problem with being a very cautious bidder is that you might miss out on some opportunities that other less cautious bidders might grab onto and get a surprise win.

Use the BidBuddy – Always a Good Strategy

If you’re looking for some things to perfect your bidding strategy BidBuddy is the solution for you. The BidBuddy is a great tool that DealDash gives (free of charge) to all bidders, that you can put in as many or as few bids as you like. You can cancel it or add more bids at any time. The BidBuddy will work well with any sort of strategy from overly cautious to overly adventurous. The choice is yours, the BidBuddy is just waiting for you to tell it what to do in the auction.

The Aspiring Power Bidder

The aspiring power bidder is going to bid until they are out of bids so they can win at all costs. This isn’t the best strategy to use if your’re short of funds. The aspiring power bidder doesn’t care who is bidding or how many people are still in the auction. The aspiring power bidder loads up their BidBuddies and occasionally come back to see if they have won or if they need to add even more bids into their BidBuddy. They will do this multiple times until they either win or run out of bids. Personally, I think it’s smarter to just load up the BidBuddy with the BIN (Buy It Now) cost of the item and then do a BIN if you don’t win. When using the BIN option DealDash will when refund all of the bids you used on that item, and you can try again another day.

Have You Taken the DealDash Tutorial?

Have you taken the DealDash tutorial yet? It’s a fun way to learn the ins and outs of bidding on DealDash.

You didn’t learn how to walk or talk overnight, and winning auctions isn’t something you can learn to do overnight, either. However, DealDash has made the process so much easier and more fun by implementing a DealDash tutorial so you can see how the auctions work before you use up any of your bids playing against real bidders. In this DealDash blog article, I am going to show you how the DealDash tutorial works.

Find the Tutorial

First, you will want to find the tutorial. Check in the “Help” section on the site.

How to Bid With the DealDash Tutorial

The tutorial will enter you into a pretend auction for a bid pack of 10 bids. You will see that your bids are being used to participate in this tutorial, but DealDash will return them to you after the tutorial, and you will get to keep the bid pack of 10 bids that you “win” as well. Even if you know how to play DealDash, you should take the tutorial anyway so you can snag your 10 free bids. Every little bit helps!

How Does the Tutorial Work?

The tutorial is an easy to understand game that takes you through a fictional DealDash auction and tells you exactly what to do, and also tells you what the other “players” are doing. These other players are not real people, they are just there to show you how other people bid in auctions. At first, the tutorial shows you how to bid by placing single bids with the “Bid Now” button.

Also Learn About BidBuddy

The DealDash Tutorial will also teach you how to use the automated bidding tool, BidBuddy. Most auctions are won by using the BidBuddy, so this is an important skill to learn.

Yay! You Win!

At the end of the tutorial, you will see what happens when you win an auction on DealDash. Here’s a hint – it’s explosive!!

Being Patient, Using Your BidBuddy on DealDash

When you think about good attributes to have as a DealDash bidder, patience is an excellent one.

Everyone can win on DealDash once or twice – but to keep your winning streak going over and over again requires many skills. One of those important skills to have is patience. Patience is a great skill to have in many aspects of life, and DealDash auctions are just one of them. Success in life and on DealDash requires patience, wisdom, and skill. It will take effort, attention, and time, but you can learn how to be successful on DealDash by using patience.

Watch Before You Bid

Before you start bidding in DealDash auctions it’s very important to learn from other bidders in the auctions. You need to use patience and watch plenty of auctions before you make the decision to bid. You don’t want to win just anything on DealDash, do you?

For example, what good is winning ladies’ perfume if you don’t wear perfume, and you don’t have anyone in mind to give the perfume to as a gift? Wouldn’t it be a better idea to be patient and wait a little longer until something that you would really love to win comes up for auction? However, it would still be a good idea to watch that perfume auction, even if you aren’t planning on bidding in it. The more auctions that you watch, the better skills that you will gain.

Use the BidBuddy

Have you met the BidBuddy yet? If you’re lacking patience, perhaps BidBuddy is the solution for you. The BidBuddy is a great tool that DealDash gives (free of charge) to all bidders, that you can put in as many or as few bids as you like. You can cancel it or add more bids at any time. Your BidBuddy will alternate bidding with the other BidBuddies that are set until there are no more bids placed from BidBuddies or other bidders, and whoever has the last bid in before the clock runs out is the winner. The BidBuddy is the epitome of patience, it’s programmed to place your bids just before an auction closes, making it a great way to make sure that you’re maximizing your bids.

Make Every Bid Count

Don’t go tossing your bids all over the place. Think about each and every auction that you enter, and plan things out before you bid. Bid on all of the auctions that you want to, of course, just be mindful about planning things out before you bid. Think twice before you make any mistakes!

Let’s Get Started on DealDash

Are you a new bidder on DealDash? If you’re just getting started you’ll need a little guidance. Read on…

Welcome to DealDash! It’s a wonderful place to get money-saving deals for yourself and your family. If you need a few tips to get yourself up and running on DealDash, then you’ve come to the right place. Here are some tips and pointers on how to get started on your new favorite bidding website.

Join and Buy Bids

It’s very easy to join DealDash. Simply go to this link right here and sign up with an email address. Once you have confirmed your email address you can sign right on and buy bids.

Buying bids is as easy as clicking the “buy” button. DealDash makes it easy to pay, as well. You can pay with a credit card or even with Paypal. The bid packs are available in different sizes. Right now they have packs of 60, 300, 600, 1200, and 2400. The price of the bids changes daily, it’s a good practice to check the price of the bids every morning so you can stock up with a bigger bid pack if there is an extra-good sale going. Here’s a tip: If the bid price is less than .14 per bid, then buy, BUY, BUY!

Set Up Your Profile

After you’ve purchased your first bid pack you’ll want to set up your bidder’s profile. Do you have an avatar that you would like to upload? Perhaps a picture of yourself, your dog, or your favorite celebrity. You can choose almost anything to upload as your avatar, but please remember that uploaded images are subject to approval and may not be immediately visible on the site.

It often usually takes a few hours for your picture to be approved. For approval, be sure that the file format is JPG, and the file is smaller than 3MB. Your uploaded image will be resized to 46 x 58 pixels. If you are so inclined you might want to resize your image yourself before you upload it, so you can be sure that it doesn’t get stretched out or pixelated when it’s uploaded.

If resizing and uploading an avatar image isn’t something that you want to do, then DealDash has many avatars that you can choose from. Just go to your dashboard and pick one and it will show up when you place a bid on DealDash.

Meet the BidBuddy

Who is the BidBuddy? He is the automated bidding too that DealDash offers to every single bidder, for free, on every single auction. Most auctions are won with the BidBuddy, and with good reason. The BidBuddy never gets distracted, loses his internet connection, or falls asleep while bidding. Here are some tips on how to use the BidBuddy:

Do the math to figure out how many bids that you need to put in your BidBuddy to get to the BIN (Buy It Now) price.
Buy enough bids to reach the BIN price of the auction you are thinking of winning.
Place the bids that you would like to place in the auction in your BidBuddy.
Hit the “Book a BidBuddy” button.
Wait for the auction to end.
Claim your win!
