Deal Dash gives us the chance for a really great bargain especially when they have a ‘Free Sale’ like this year’s St. Patricks Day Special!

The Good The Bid And The Ugly

March 11, 2014 DealDash Reviews

I don’t know how much longer I can participate in auctions with new bidders who do not understand the clock, the bid buddy, or the buy-it-now option. I have been a DealDash bidder for a year and a half. I have had some good, bad, fast and not-so-fast auction wins. I’ve seen the good, the bid and the ugly.
