How I Chose My Penny Auction Site

first penny auction

I stumbled upon the DealDash Auction website one day and wondered how legit it was because I had tried other Penny Auctions where I was not impressed with the results.

I did a little research on my own to see if there were any negative comments about this auction site and when I was pleased with the positive information that I had read I decided that I would try this auction website. There were several factors that I immediately liked when I joined DealDash.

  • First was the reduced bid prices.
  • Second was the massive selection of merchandise
  • Third was the

Experience Of A New DealDash Bidder

DealDash

I’m a fairly new bidder on DealDash and this is my first experience with penny auctions.

After registering in December 2013 I began bidding immediately! I actually thought that I was going to be a winner immediately as well and I must say I lost all my bids. This was due to the fact that I didn’t try to educate myself about the auctions or read any of the reviews from experienced members like what you’ll find here in this customer driven blogging website DealDash is reviewed by real customers with real stories.

My History of Online Penny Auctions Since 2011

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. The sad thing is that many of these new bidders end up “drowning”.  The good news is “drowning” here only  — Read full post
