I understand that dealdash.com allows a full return of your money on your first purchase if there is cause. My first purchase after some time bidding was to just go ahead and buy now. I that that on a laptop computer at the price of $514. The article was shipped promptly but when UPS delivered it the package looked like someone had taken a wrench to the box. The flap was also totally unsealed. I was not about to accept such a vulnerable piece of electronics under that condition. I refused the package and it was returned to sender on Sept 26th this year. I did not hear from DealDash.com so I went to their contact site and advised them of the issue. I have since contacted them twice more and have had no response from them. If this was just a small item I would walk away but I am 78 years old, not stupid, and not afraid of anyone but God. I have received recent emails from them so I know that their electronic system recognizes my electronic system. I will not hesitate to contact any tv channel which carries their advertisements, I will start at the top. I will give them one week to contact me in regard to this issue. As I told them in my correspondence to them, I just want to be a happy customer.

The last three day I've seen something strange happening on DD. I'm limited on cash so I watch the site a lot and bid when I think there's a chance to win. What's been happening is a lot, and I mean a ton, of low end $10 and $15 Amazon gift cards have been going for $. 01 and a few more for no more than $. 03. Many of those are going to "first time winners". That seems to have stopped since last nite. During that same time period the $25 and up cards have been going of very high prices in general with a few under a dollar. This a/m the site wasn't updating like is is supposed to as well. Possibly internet traffic jam or maybe a denial of service attack?
The obvious inference on the cheap cards is DD is somehow allowing newbies to "win" a few to keep up the interest etc. I really think DD is trying to maintain a rep of honesty etc but when I see things like this m alarm bell start ringing!

There are LOTS of team bidders or possibly it's the same person setting up multiple accounts. I have bid on three different items where there were two others bidding. As soon as I dropped out, one of the others did too letting the other win before someone else joined the auction. That's too much of a coincidence since it's happened three different times within a few days.

I did win an item 2 weeks ago that hasn't shipped yet. It's readily available online or at BestBuy. I contacted their support via e-mail & was told it may be as long as a month from the date the auction was completed. Their FAQ states fast shipping but it isn't.

I trade on the internet. I just spent an hour yesterday and an hour today reviewing how the system works. Dealdash is raking in the cash, and statistically, you WILL NOT get a good deal. YES, there are people getting GREAT deals! AND there people winning the lottery too! Dealdash uses the IMMENSE profits from all the bidders to pay the vendors well for the items posted. And don't be ""swayed" by all the positive posts you see here! You think that they are all following the rule "Do not post here if you have an interest in the company"? WINK WINK

So bids cost $. 60 to sign up I bought the 60 bid starter pack for $36. Bids hen went on sale for $. 15 so I bought 2000 for $300 thinking that would be plenty of bids. I bid on a $600 iPad and used about 2400 bids with the idea of just buying it at the end and getting my bids back if necessary. This particular iPad sold for $186.24. That is 18,624 bids, let's say each bid was sold for $. 15 that would equal $2,793.60 for an iPad, plus the $186.24 that the winner had to pay. I wish I had invented this ridiculous scam. The people at this site must be raking in money hand over fist due to all the sad dumb people (like me) who just flush their money away. I have tried using my bids on other items since and firmly believe that you cannot win any of these if you have a job or a life. Then I found out that there are software programs out there that people can download to give them extra information and help them win. My advice would be to save your money. I started with the idea that if I only bid on something that I am willing to pay full price for anyway that I can't lose right? Except that after using all of my $350 worth of bids and then having to pay $50 for winning a $350 dollar item, I actually lost $50 and wasted a lot of my time. I'm sure there are people out there that get lucky once in a while or have a system, but it's just like playing in a casino, eventually the house always wins.

I joined DealDash in September 2012. A friend told me about another penny auction site that I tried for a bit, but did not like, so I used the internet to check out some others. I tried a few of them briefly, but was never impressed. Then, I saw and tried DealDash and truly liked it from the start. I read all the instructions, reviews, and watched some auctions before I tried it. After playing for a while, I discovered that if I had a question or a problem, the Support Team was always there … that REALLY impressed me! I started with small inexpensive items and did pretty well. As I graduated to larger auctions, I was successful and began the quest to try to do all my 2012 Christmas shopping on DealDash. I finished all of my shopping before Thanksgiving! Most of the gifts were impressive and on the expensive side. I purchased everything for pennies on the dollar with free shipping.
After shopping for everyone else, and with several large Amazon cards I won, I was able to purchase a quality bicycle for my husband and a cool tricycle for myself. I also won 2 Nikon cameras, 2 laptops, a Samsung cell phone, 2 Samsung tablets, 3 Dr. Dr headphones, a 45" HDTV, a sewing machine, a pressure cleaner, kitchen appliances, linens, toys, and gift cards galore! I now have all the electronics and gadgets I need.
And just recently I won the "Best Photo of the Week" prize from DealDash and chose to receive a $500 Amazon Gift Card. In addition, I received 200 free bids for the initial posting of the photo on their Facebook page! I volunteer with a local animal rescue operation, and so I'm always looking after animals that need a little extra help. That card will buy a LOT of vitamins, supplements, supplies, food, and litter for these abandoned, abused, and neglected babies.
I am an extremely satisfied DealDash customer. The savings are amazing, the support is amazing, and I see myself as being a DealDash customer for life
PS: I have a little hint for folks who might like to know for sure when a UPS package is being delivered. Sign up for UPS My Choice. You will know exactly when a package is being delivered and then sent a message after it is put on your front porch! You can even have them hold a package or re-route a package.

I have a great time using Deal Dash and have won 25 items in the past 19 days. Most folks that have a bad experience simply don't understand how to use the site. You should only bid on things that your willing to buy anyway, that way if you lose then you simply use the Buy It Now feature and you'll get all your bids back to try for something else. Since shipping is free, if you use this strategy then its a win win situation. You get the item you wanted and the bids to try again. And if you win, then you've gotten a great deal on something you wanted anyway. Just be patient and watch a few before you start and it will all become clear how to play. Just don't go straight for that big screen TV with no experience and a few hundred bids and expect to win it big.

I am winning quite a bit. You really have to know when to hold em and when to fold em. In the beginning, I was getting my butt handed to me. Now I know how and when to bid. I am extremely pleased with the customer service on the site. I get most of the items I have won in just days! I won a 600.00 camera on Saturday and had it by Wednesday. Now that is fast (and FREE) shipping! Great job DD. Now if they could just get rid of the power bidders, I would be in heaven.

I believe DealDash is THE best auction site there is. The items up for bid are GOOD items, (good quality), the bids are reasonably priced, and delivery time on won auction items is really great!
I've dealt with customer service a couple of times, and they're incredible. The site itself has great incentives, without being convoluted.
I've truly enjoyed the site so far. I would comment further, but I've got to go check a couple of auctions right quick! Yes, I do love my DealDash!

In two weeks I've won 15 items including a $500 Nikon D3100 DLSR for very little cost and few bids. S&H is always free, how could you beat that? The "Buy It Now Get Bids Back" is a great promo and there is always an incentive of earning free bids for photo submission. Got an issue or question? Email and you will receive a prompt response and speedy resolution. Love my bidding experience with you, DealDash! Looking forward to more blogs and tips on winning..
