Loving Your DealDash Experience

DealDash’s goal is to have everyone love their experience on the site. Here are some ideas to get the most out of it.

If you’re a newbie and you haven’t been having a great experience on DealDash, you might not be using the site to the fullest extent. It’s hard to consistently win auctions if you don’t know what you are doing, and that’s where the DealDash Blog comes in to help. We want you to love DealDash and have a great experience every time, even if you don’t win, and the way to do that is to learn everything about DealDash that you can!

Being an Excellent Bidder

How can you learn to be an excellent bidder if you’re new to the site? There is an easy answer to that, and it is to watch the more experienced bidders in the big auctions. Even if you’re not planning on bidding on a larger auction such as a TV or video game system you should still watch some of those auctions as they are happening.

By watching the more experienced bidders in the bigger auctions you will get a much better idea of how to develop your own bidding style. When you’ve decided on a bidding style that you would like to use, then it’s time to start bidding in auctions yourself.

Choosing the Correct Auctions to Bid On

Before you start bidding you’ll need to purchase a bid pack. The bid packs range from around 50 to 2,000! After buying the bid pack you can figure out exactly which auction that you would like to enter. You can start with an auction that is currently in progress, as long as the final auction price hasn’t reached the $5 “No Jumper Limit.”

You can start with an auction that is currently in progress, as long as the final auction price hasn’t reached the $5 “No Jumper Limit.” You may also choose to enter an auction that is happening in the near future by loading up your BidBuddy with the appropriate number of bids to reach the BIN (Buy It Now) price.

Choosing an auction to bid in is one of the most fun parts about DealDash! Personally, I would suggest starting off with a gift card auction. That way if you have reached the BIN (Buy It Now) price you can simply buy the gift card for the regular face-value, receive all of your bids back, and also get free shipping. It’s a no-risk auction when you bid on a gift card that you would have purchased anyway such as a gas gift card.

Using Mind Games to Win on DealDash

Using mind games on DealDash might not be the nicest way to play, but it is smart.

Do you ever use mind games on DealDash to beat your competition? What sorts of mind games do you play? Even though it might not be the nicest way to play on DealDash it is allowed as long as you are following all of the House Rules. If you would like to see a list of the House Rules just click on this link right here. Read the rest of this article to see how other people might be playing mind games with you.

Bidder Avatars

There are some rules about what sorts of pictures that you may upload on DealDash, the official rule on avatars is the following…

“Please don’t try to intimidate others or post misleading content, bid count, links, emails, etc. Thank you!”

It says very clearly that you are not allowed to post “intimidating” pictures, however, it doesn’t say that you aren’t allowed to have an avatar of your favorite items to bid on.

For example, if Legos are your favorite item to bid on you might want to have a picture of a Lego as your avatar. Or perhaps you are a musician, you might want to have a picture of a music note as an avatar. Trust me, if I entered into an auction for Legos or a guitar with either of the above avatars I would probably back out pretty quickly. If someone likes something enough to make it their avatar, well, they probably want it more than I do.

Stompers Play With Your Mind

No one likes Stompers. Stompers are someone who bids immediately after you cheating you out of your clock time. This can be done accidentally, of course, but if it happens over and over again you know that they are doing it on purpose.

When someone stomps on your bid it probably frustrates you. If you’re frustrated enough and you haven’t put in very many bids you just may back out of the auction. Stompers might be annoying and make you feel unhappy, but it’s 100% allowed. That’s one of the great things about DealDash – you can play however you like as long as you follow the House Rules.

I hope this helped you think about playing DealDash using some strategic mind games! If you’re interested in reading more tips, tactics, and tricks check out the “Tactics & Tips” section on DealDash.

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!
