I signed up to deal dash and added a credit card, I couldn't sign up without one, and as soon as I did, my account was charged $72. With some research, I did find a phone number for deal dash, and I was told they would cancel the charge. But fair warning, you can't sign up without paying. Just be aware.
It's not what they show you on television AD, you would have spent a couple of hundreds of dollars before you win anything and then you will give up after all the money and time and you get nothing in return. 2 hours later I get emails saying the this item is sold for a lot higher than I left it, it would've cost me a lot more money to even win anything. So the bottom line is not true and it will cost you more than think.
Hello Adel,
Thank you for your review, we’re sad to hear you feel this way.
As a penny auction website, DealDash is unlike other auction sites that you may be used to.
While we do operate on the pay-to-play model, where we differ from other penny auction platforms is that we offer the option to get your bids back.
On DealDash, bidders that don’t win the auction may purchase the same item for the MSRP retail value using Buy It Now—doing so gets you not only the item, but the bids used in the auction are returned to the bidder so that they may use them again in other auctions.
As well, we noticed that you are still eligible for our 90-day 100% Money Back Guarantee on your first bid pack, so we have refunded this for you and sent you an email with the refund details.
Our Support Team is on hand 24/7! We hope you’ll get in touch with any additional questions or concerns that you may have.

I made an acct to see if I could find a deal on a ps4. The moment I got on the site the home page just seemed fishy' so I googled to see if it was a scam. Didn't like what I read so deleted my credit card info from the site and exited. Was only on the acct for approx 90 seconds. 2 hours later my bank calls me to confirm some possibly fraudulent transactions on my credit card. Deal Dash charged my card 3 separate charges for $70 EACH. My bank is currently disputing. Deal Dash is some bullsh*t, smh
Hi Kenny,
Thank you for your review.
My name is Erin and I'm replying on behalf of the DealDash Happiness Team.
I apologize for any misunderstanding when you were signing up that you were also purchasing your first Bid Pack at the same time. In regards to the other purchases you mentioned, it sounds like these bids may have been purchased by accident. DealDash has no way to charge our customers for purchases that were not made.
All charges have to originate on the customer's end. Our system is set up this way for your consumer safety.
That said, we offer a 100% money back guarantee on any first bid pack purchase, within 90 days of payment. We can also refund any accidental bid pack purchases, within 30 days of payment, if no bids have been placed.
I encourage you to reach out to us so that we may assist. We're here for you 24/7.

Hi Jeanette,
Thank you for your review!
The bidding does allow customers to place bids as frequently or infrequently as they choose, this is part of the strategy of bidding. That said, we do have our Every BidBuddy Counts feature, which ensure you are always earning your full 9-seconds on the Time as Highest Bidder meter with every bid you place using BidBuddy.
We hope you'll get in touch with us for more details, we're always happy to help.

Have the best day!
What a scam! Let's start with the hook; DealDash does "sell" items at below MSRP. Now here's the part where they make their money; some of these "Auctions" can literally take days for an item to sell. Let's look at how it works, the price of an item goes up $0.01 every 10 seconds, that's $0.06/min but DD gets $1.20/min. Let's just use a full 24 hour sale. In 24 hours DD charges bid fees in the amount of $1,728 no matter who the bidders are. During that same period the "sales" price rose to only $86.40. An item that "sells" for $800 would take almost 10 days to complete the auction. In a real auction there are no bid fees so if someone bids higher it doesn't cost you a thing. That's a fair auction, DealDash is a variation of the well known Pyramid Scheme. Do the extra math, numbers do not lie.

So far I have liked every product I have won on Deal Dash. Quality products. Good variety of items, easy checkout. Timely shipping. What's not to like.
Wish they would let us pick our own amount of bids to purchase. Sometimes I don't want 300 bids. Let me decide how many I want to purchase at a time.
Hi Nancy,
Thank you for your review, and for all the star love!
We're delighted to hear that you're enjoying your time on DealDash and have been enjoying the items you have received.

You will have a hard time bidding against the same old people that will have bids unlimited to out bid you and what make it so bad, Deal Dash tell you that they can't bid on the same thing once they won that item THAT IS THE BIGGEST BS! If you really want an item on Deal Dash, Go on Ebay or Amazon and you will find the item you want at a much cheaper price that actually the same bidders that are on Deal dash and are reselling it on the Internet. What a nice racket!
Hi Barry,
Thank you for getting in touch with your concerns.
My name is Erin and I'm replying on behalf of the DealDash Happiness Team.
I apologize if there's been a misunderstanding. We have two auction types—normal auctions, where the item may be won once every 30 days; and one-per-user auctions, where the item may only be won once. As these are separate auction types with their own individual winning limits, it is possible for a bidder to win an item under each auction type within the same 30-day period.
In regards to items you mentioned you have seen elsewhere, keep in mind that these items might not be listed by an authorized retailer for that brand, which would mean the item is not covered by any type of warranty.
Rest assured that reselling is against our Terms of Use; if any bidders are found to be reselling, we do take immediate action, up to and including account closure.
Your DealDash experience matters to us and I'd love to ensure that any additional concerns that you have are addressed. I hope you'll reach out to our Support Team so that we may further assist. We're here 24/7 and you may get in touch as follows:

Thanks again for sharing your concerns, and we look forward to hearing from you soon!
I am so frustrated with this auction and i'm starting to realize that some of the reviews are true that there are a lot of fake accounts to drive up the prices. I have been bidding on a 850 bid item for a good 3 hrs, lost 416 bids on it decided to leave when yet another person joined to bidding process. The person who was originally bidding with me is still one now, 4 hours later. She never left, kept bidding. By my estimation, she would have lost well over 1000 bids, yet she is bidding on a 850 bids - how does that make sense. I won by "some miracle" 100 bids right when i joined and a $10 Dunkin donuts gift card right in the beginning and ever since then, loosing and loosing. Don't waste ur money people

We, of course, are hoping you can win many of items at a great discount! If you don't win an auction, we do have our Buy it Now option which returns the bids used back to your account.

As we do have a 90-day, 100% money-back guarantee on your first bid pack purchase, we are happy to help get this resolved and clear your experience up!
Did you know that we have a Second Chance Guarantee too? If you don't win an auction with your first bid pack, those bids are credited back to your account free for a second chance.
Your satisfaction is important to us and if you're still not happy with your DealDash experience,
Our contact details are below so you can get in touch and we can fix your expereince up.
We look forward to talking to you:

Hi Nancy!
I hope you are having a wonderful day
I've won a couple of auctions of quality items for one penny! The only reason I gave 4 stars is because of slow delivery.

Thank you for being the best part of DealDash!
Answer: Thats a hard question to answer, because it depends on the article, and its value. I will say I have won some great Articles, and lost many, maby more. The more valuable the article the harder to win. Personally, I gave up on Deal Dash due to the BID STOMPING and Jumpers and the gready nature of some bidders, who stockpile bids. Also, even though Deal Dash supposedly has means to catch Buddy Bidding, I myself have caught at least 4 people doing buddy bidding, reported it, and nothing was ever done about it. Finally I no longer play on Deal Dash, for the reasons I mentioned, but thats my choice. Its up to you, on what you want to do. Hope this helps.
Answer: Hi Beatriz, I want to start this conversation by inviting you to read our Audit Conducted by Ernst & Young: https://dealdash.files.wordpress.com/2014/12/dealdash_ey_audit.pdf Fair & Honest is a symbolic capture of DealDash's core values, and these certainly start and end with our commitment to being humanistic. I would love to show this to you, how can we help? Please let me know. Adrian Community Manager
Answer: Hi William. If you do not win an auction you will not automatically get the bids back to your account. You have the option to use the Buy it Now button. By using the Buy it Now option you will get the item for retail price and all bids back to your account that you used in the auction. Users who take advantage of this option usually have a better experience, since they both get the item they initially wanted, as well as retain all their bids. If you do not want to use Buy it Now you will unfortunately lose the bids. We recommend our users to bid on items they really want, so that if they lose the auction, they can still get the item and their bids back. Let me know if you have more questions!
Answer: Hi Julie, I hope you are having a wonderful day I'd be happy to explain how the Buy-It-Now option works. Each bid you place takes away one of your bids from your balance and increases the price of the auction by 1 penny, then resetting the clock to 10 seconds. It's in this small window that someone else must decide if they will place a bid to outbid you. If no new bids are placed and you are the final bidder in the auction, you win the auction at the final sales price. If you do not win the auction, you will see the Buy It Now button. By using the Buy it now option, you will get the item for retail price and all the bids you used in that auction will be returned to your bid balance. Users who take advantage of this option usually have a better experience, since they get the item they initially wanted as well as retain all their bids. Please let us know if you have any other questions and be sure to read more about us here: http://www.dealdash.com/how-does-it-work Thanks so much for your great question, please feel free to reach back out and let us know if there's anything else you need.

Answer: Hi Emogene! Great to hear you had a good experience and won a few items. Orders are usually delivered in 7-10 business days. I hope you enjoy your items. If you need anything else, please don't hesitate to contact me!
Answer: Hi Kathy - All items are brand new. We work with top suppliers such as Walmart and Sears, who ship the items directly to your door! If you are unhappy with any item you receive, simply contact our support team and they will help you out. If you need anything else, please don't hesitate to contact me!
Answer: Hi Elizaabeth, Thank you for getting in touch. We offer all of our customers a full money back guarantee for the first bid pack purchase. Our payments team can get in touch with you and issue a refund. Please send me a number we can call. My email is [email protected]
Answer: Hi Patricia, Thank you for getting in touch. I am sure this has been a misunderstanding. DealDash is audited by Ernst & Young, confirming that all bids are placed by real customers and all items are delivered. DealDash members and their acquaintances are strictly banned from taking part in the auctions. My guess is that another user may have chosen a user name similar to DealDash. If so, we'll need to change it to avoid confusion. Please send me an email with your user name, so I can find the auctions and spot the user. My email is [email protected] I look forward to hearing from you. Best, Adrian Community Manager
Answer: Hi Jan, For new users, I normally recommend watching our How it Works video for a brief overview of what to expect from the auctions: http://www.dealdash.com/how-does-it-work DealDash has a 100% money back guarantee on your first bid pack purchase and a winning guarantee. If you decide to give DealDash a try and don't win an auction with your first bid pack we'll return the bids back to your account free for a second chance. If you're still not satisfied with your DealDash shopping experience we'll be happy to refund your first bid pack purchase no questions asked. You can even keep any bids in your account or items you have won. Giving DealDash a try is risk free!
Answer: Hi Jasmine. All items on the site are brand new, factory sealed and come with standard manufacturer’s warranties. Vanessa, I am very sorry to hear you have felt that way. Could you please let me know your user name and I'll pull up your account? I'll be happy to assist with any concerns!
Bid on auctions and save. All auctions start at $0 with no minimum price reserve. Everything must go! DealDash is the fair and honest bidding site. Founded in 2009, millions of bidders have enjoyed Deal Dash auctions since.
