Ho Ho Ho – Christmas Shopping on DealDash!

November 15, 2013 DealDash Reviews

With the holidays fast approaching and the site already crawling with hundreds if not thousands of bargain seekers, I am thinking that this is only going to ramp up as the holidays get closer. So, with that knowledge in mind, I have already secured all of my gifts PRIOR to the holiday rush. If I were a newbie to DD, I would certainly start shopping now BEFORE the onslaught of desperate holiday shoppers begin to inundate any and all auctions, especially electronics which are already harder to win than they were even just 3 or 4 months ago.

DealDash Tip: Use a Nice Bidder Bio

November 14, 2013 DealDash Reviews

I wanted to write here to address some of the comments I see from people who write in their bidder bio.

DealDash Auction Bidder Bios

November 8, 2013 DealDash Reviews

see no, hear no, speak no evil Many of us shopping on DealDash are guilty of wanting to admonish someone in our bidder bio. Someone who is stomping bids all of the time or threatening everyone with their millions of bids or tons of money. We all want to say something witty and put them in their place. What I have found is that most of the people we are trying to reach with our “message” never even look at those little bios! They are the ones that are pressing that “bid button” like their life depends on it, never once actually logging in to the item  — Read full post
