What’s The Best Bidder? A Power Bidder? A Bid Stomper? An Over Bidder?

If I could sculpt the perfect DealDash bidder, what would he/she be like? A Power Bidder? A Bid Stomper? An Over Bidder? None of the these.

My hope would be that he/she would be someone who allows the clock to count down so bids could be accrued with the DealDash feature called Time As Highest Bidder.

The Time as Highest Bidder Clock is a timer that measures how much time bidders spend as the top bidder in every auction. Once the Time as Highest Bidder Clock reaches a certain level bidders can claim free bids!

The perfect bidder would be someone who could grasp the concept of a “good deal” by never over bidding on an item, one who is taking into consideration the total amount of bids placed, not just what they have invested. I am always amazed to see an auction go for hours and hours. Seeing a $200.00 item at a current winning bid price of $125.00, and when I do the math, should that auction end there, DealDash has made 1,875.00 @ 0.15 per bid. Even though not all bids are “paid bids” and people who use the Buy it Now get their spent bids back from DealDash, I still imagine even DealDash says “Wow Really”? Now some of you will say “I don’t care as long as I win it for a few bids of my own“. That’s the mentality that keeps the “deal” out of a good deal. Remember the bidders who have pulled out of the auction, making you the winner {even if they fall asleep bidding like I have before}. Be the kind of bidder you would want bidding in your auctions. Winning is great, don’t get me wrong, but losing is a humbling experience. One we try to teach our kids everyday. “Winning isn’t everything“.
