DealDash Wants You to Know How to Spot a Legit Business


There are a few simple ways to know if the online business you are looking at is legitimate or just a scam. Here are a few.

The first and most common way to find out if a business is legitimate is to check it’s score on the Better Business Bureau (BBB). It just so happens that DealDash is actually rated an A+ on the Better Business Bureau. There are a few different ways that the Better Business Bureau uses to rate businesses. Some of these ways include:

  1. Length of time business has been operating
  2. Complaint volume filed with BBB for business of this size
  3. Response to any complaint(s) filed against business
  4. Resolution of complaint(s) filed against business

According to the Better Business Bureau, DealDash, Inc. has received 4.91 out of 5 stars based on 194 Customer Reviews and a BBB Rating of A+. If you are a skeptical sort of person, feel free to check out DealDash’s Better Business Bureau page at this link right here and you can see all of the information. Clear, Honest, and Transparent all the way.

Another way to tell if an online business is legitimate is to explore a little and see if the business in question has an actual physical address and phone number available that you can verify. If you’re interested, DealDash has both. DealDash’s official phone number is (855) 455-3325 and their official address is 150 S 5th St STE 1340, Minneapolis, MN 55402. 

The final way that we will talk about legit online businesses today is…Does the company in question have the standard stock photo of the 20-something receptionist with the headset on as their “employee” picture, or do they have real and genuine employee photos available to see? As far as DealDash is concerned…I’ll let this picture speak for itself.

There are also other photos available online if you click this link right here.

I hope that this reassures those of you who might have been a little bit skeptical about exactly how legit DealDash really is. If you’re interested in reading even more tips and tricks check out the “Tactics & Tips” section on DealDash. Good luck and happy bidding everyone!

DealDash Winning Limits Have Changed!

In case you didn’t notice the banner on DealDash.com over the weekend, I am here to annouce that the structure of the winning limits have changed.

Are you a big bidder on DealDash? Do you find yourself filling up all of your slots to win items on DealDash just a day or two after they have opened back up? Are you the sort of person who win all of your items right away and find yourself hoping, wishing, and dreaming that you could still play on DealDash and are saddened when you realize that you still have a week until you can play on DealDash again?

Well good news, people! The winning limits on DealDash have completely changed. The 100% official news fro DealDash is as follows:

To ensure equal chances for everyone, you may win the same item only once per week. All remaining BidBuddies on other auctions for the same item will be automatically cancelled at the time of your win.

In case you need a bit of a simple explanation, that means that you could conceivably win TONS of auctions per week, if there were enough auctions that you were interested in that were for different items, that is. Want to win 2 iPads or 2 Xboxes in a week? Well, you’re out of luck there, however if you want to win a few different items every single day for a week you can definitely do that. Every week your winning limit will reset and you will be able to win more of the same items that you won the previous week.

Please keep these new wining limits in mind, because once you have won a particular item your other BidBuddies that you have set for identical items will be cancelled and your bids that were remaining in your BidBuddies will be returned to your account. This could become a bad situation for you if you are bidding on two identical items simultaneously, and have invested bids into both auctions. If you happen to win the first auction the BidBuddy for the second auction would immediately be cancelled. The remaining bids that were in your BidBuddy would be returned to your account, however all of the bids that you had already spent in that second auction would not be returned. So my advice to you would be to only bid on one similar auction at a time. Better safe than sorry.

This blog and it’s comments are monitored by the DealDash Community Manager, so if you have any questions about the new policy that this blog has not answered please feel free to leave a question in the comments section. I am a big fan of this new policy, I hope that you feel the same! Good luck and happy bidding everyone!

Fun Times on DealDash

  Going on DealDash and seeing all of the auctions is one of the best parts of my day. DealDash is fun to visit even if you aren’t planning on bidding.

One of the most fun things on DealDash that doesn’t include bidding and winning is looking at the list of winners! I could spend hours just scrolling down the list of winners. I love seeing what everyone has won, how much the final auction value was, and what time of day they won. It’s amazing some of the deals that people get everyday on DealDash.

It may just sound like an idle hobby of mine, but it’s just undercover research disguised as fun!  If you pay attention to what type of products that people are winning, what time of day, and what the final price of the auction is then it will help you in the future. For example, if you are a regular “watcher” of the Winner’s Tab on DealDash, and you notice that baby products always seem to be a steal at under $1 final auction value on Tuesdays, well it would just be smart thinking to wait until the following Tuesday to see if the baby products are going for a song. If they are going fast and cheap, well get in there and bid!

 

 

Another fun thing that DealDash provides for us is DealDash’s various social media accounts. DealDash is on all of the most common social media platforms; Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter, and Google+. Not only can you enjoy great content such as seeing who won the photo of the week contest, you can even nab some free bids for yourself.

You can earn free bids by posting pictures to different the social media outlets. Getting free bids from DealDash’s social media accounts is easy!

What Makes DealDash Better than the Rest?

  There are a lot of bidding sites out there to choose from. Why do people choose DealDash over all of the others?

To start things off, I think that the reason people initially find DealDash is the commercials. If you haven’t seen a DealDash commercial, then you must TiVo every single moment of your TV viewing, because the DealDash commercials are everywhere. I like them because they are fun, easy to understand, and invite you to come online and read more about DealDash before making  any kind of monetary commitment. And, bonus, they feature real DealDash customers! The commercials are a great way to spread the word about DealDash, and that’s why I think that DealDash has more new users signing up than any other penny auction site. Now, the reasons that they continue bidding on DealDash versus the other sites are very easy to see.

I have always been interested in online auctions, so when I first saw a DealDash commercial a few years ago I was intrigued. I did a lot of research on penny auctions, and they sounded so fun and exciting that I signed up to not only DealDash but a few other sites as well. DealDash has always lived up to their claims. They are transparent and honest in their business practices, there are no bots, and if you see and report any “team bidding” they will shut it down. This is not the case with other bidding sites that I have tried. Penny auctions can be difficult enough to win if you are going up against a power bidder, why make it even harder by bidding on a site that allows team bidding and bots?

Speaking of bots – there’s simply no need for bots on DealDash! DealDash offers every single bidder an even playing field by giving us all a tool to help place our bids for us. The BidBuddy is the best tool around to help you win auctions. Just the BidBuddy with as many bids as you would like to spend on an auction and let the BidBuddy bid on the auction for you. Unlike other sites that offer an automatic bidder, the BidBuddy can be filled with as many bids as you would like all at one time, well before the auction starts. With other sites, if they have an automatic bidder there is a very low limit of bids that you can load, and you have to keep going back to the auction to make sure that you still have bids left in your automatic bidder.

The customer is king on DealDash. If you have a problem or question, no matter how small or silly you can always open up a support ticket and DealDash will get back to you quickly, honestly, and with a good attitude. I have had dealings with other auction sites’ customer service, and I have to say that DealDash’s customer service reps are the nicest and most polite that I have ever encountered. I am also very impressed with their response time – DealDash has literally emailed me back within an hour after opening a service ticket, and never more than 24 hours. That’s what I call great customer service!

I hope that this article makes you realize how unique (in a good way!) that DealDash is versus other penny auction sites. If you’re interested in reading some tips and tricks check out the “Tactics & Tips” section on DealDash. Good luck and happy bidding everyone!
