Bid Different on DealDash

I have been a bidder on DealDash for 18 months now and recently learned something that I want to pass along. I thought I knew pretty much everything with 280 DealDash wins under my belt and was more than a little surprised to learn this.

On January 30th, my husband was bidding in a 5000 Bid Pack auction. Although he signed up with DealDash about 11 months ago, he has not been a terribly active participant.

History of Online Auctions

I began bidding on some online penny auction sites at the urging of my brother in 2011. He had been extremely lucky on several different sites so I started watching him and tried to determine what the best techniques for me would be. As I watched and learned how he was able to win, I realized that I did not have the same “luck” he did, nor did I have the desire to “always” be at the top of the board, nor did I like being a bully.

Learn To Swim Before Diving In

Olympic Medalist Dara Torres training in Coral Springs, Fla.

When entering a swimming pool, some people prefer to dive right in, while others like to ease in slowly. Assuming we already know how to swim, either approach is perfectly acceptable. But, what if we haven’t bothered to learn how to swim? Which would be the wiser approach?

The same holds true for entering a penny auction for the first time.  Unfortunately, many new bidders dive right in before taking the time to learn anything about how penny auctions work.
