When is the Best Time to Bid on DealDash?
Have you ever thought about when is the best time to bid on DealDash?
It is easy to look ahead to the upcoming auctions, and see an item you want which may be scheduled to start at 2:30am in the morning. You may be thinking.. “It’s 2:30am, not many people will be up then, this is the best time to bid”. Not to burst your bubble, however you may be surprised this is not the best time to bid.
Remember there are time zones, and DealDash is nationwide. Just because an item is going off at 2:30am in the morning does not mean it’s the best time to bid because others are asleep. Especially if you’re on the east cost time you need to keep in mind that the west coast people may also want the same thing and it’s much earlier for them.
This is something that is very simple, however it took me a few weeks and some wasted bids in my bid buddy to realize that what I thought was the best time to bid, was actually not. I would often look ahead to the auctions going off in the middle of the night or very early morning, depending on your point of view, and assume that the item would go cheap since no one would be likely be up to bid on it. I was wrong.

I have over a years experience and have noticed people are up at all hours of the night. Whether they are east coast or west coast, it doesn’t really matter. Many people have different schedules and are willing to use their bids at four in the morning just the same as they would at four in the afternoon, there really is no difference. So when is the best time to bid? I must say the auctions are really unpredictable so I don’t think you should assume you will score something cheaply just because you stay up to win it. Also, it’s easy to book a bid buddy in advance for any auction you want. Remember you’re not required to actually be present when the auction starts in order to bid on it, you can be sound asleep while you bid buddy works for your auction win.
