It's great fun and exciting. I'm a daily player and have won some great things. Hint... It's all about the strategy.
Fairly impossible to win an auction, I would rather see. 50 to $1.00 increments
Hi James
Thank you for your honest review of DealDash
I'm sorry to hear that you are having some trouble winning on DealDash.
I can certainly understand your disappointment.
Here are some top customer-voted bidding tips:
• Bid only on items you like.
• Focus on one auction at a time.
• Decide in advance how many bids you will use in the auction (keep to this limit).
• Use Buy it Now if you don't win to get your bids back and the item
• Keep to a budget
Thanks for your feedback regarding the bidding increments. Each bid raising the auction price by just 1 cent helps to keep the final auction price down.
We, of course, are hoping you can win many of these 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. Some of the most successful bidders use Buy it Now, meaning they either win for a great deal or buy the item they want anyway and get all the bids back!
With all this said, we are truly grateful for you speaking up and being honest.
Conversations like this are invaluable to us and I will make sure your message gets shared with the rest of the Team, and that your voice is heard in our ongoing discussions about how we can improve.
Let’s continue the conversation, we’d love to hear how you think we can make the auctions on DealDash even better.
If there's anything that we can do to improve your review, please don't hesitate to let us know!

Thank you once again for your time, and have a great day.
Charge for bids. No matter how much you bid you'll never win. Always a last sec bid to cause you to lose. Bid on a ps4. After using over 100 bids I still lost. It's a scam to get you to waste bids on items you'll never win so you have to buy more bids. Stay away from
Hi Robert
Thank you for your honest review.
I'm sorry to hear that you didn't win the PS4 auction.
I can certainly understand your disappointment with the winning price here had gotten quite close to the Buy-It-Now price.
You will occasionally see the auction price for an item exceed its value during 'Time as Highest Bidder' or 50% off promotions.
We, of course, are hoping you can win many of these 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. Some of the most successful bidders use Buy it Now, meaning they either win for a great deal or buy the item they want anyway and get all the bids back!
Did you know that we have a Second Chance Guarantee? 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. These have already been added for you if you want to give the auctions another try.
With all this said, we are truly grateful for you speaking up and being honest.
Your satisfaction is important to us and if you're still not happy with your DealDash experience, we also have a 100% money-back guarantee on your first bid pack purchase.

Dealdash is a WINNER. I love bidding and winning the top quality items they offer on Dealdash. I have won beautiful items for my home. I just won a lovely piece of jewelry. And I am not that great at bidding. I am what you would call average. Their shipping is super fast. I can hardly wait for my next win. Highly recommend. It's super FUN.
Hi Patti
I hope you are having a wonderful day
Several times, customers win merchandise for only a few pennies. But if you check out the bidding history, on specific items, you will find out that a majority of the time, the amount of money a winning customer has spent on their bids amounts to more than the price they are paying to win a particular item.
Hi David,
Thanks for getting in touch!
I am truly sorry for any confusion here with DealDash.
We, of course, are hoping you can win many of these 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.

Deal Dash is a great way to pick good products. Over the years I have won a number of different actions. I even won a Bike. There are a number of ways to win free bids. Just logging in each day and placing a bid will earn you bids. If you give a review you earn bids. There is a timer at the bottom which keeps track how long you are in first place and when the bar is full you earn bids. You can also exchange items you have won for bids. Best Action site I have seen online

I like the site they just need more variety of items. The choice of items was better a few years ago.
Hi Milly.
We really appreciate your feedback on our selection.
It's through individuals like yourself who provide honest feedback, that helps us improve DealDash for everyone.
We strive to keep things fresh by bringing in new items on a regular basis, and definitely want to step things up coming into the Holidays.

Thank you once again for your time, and have a great day.
When you win an auction you have a choice of receiving the item or bids. Because of this, people over the years have racked up an unlimited amount of bids and can literally win every auction. You do not have a chance of winning an auction against those people. It did not take very long to figure this out, so don't waste your money.
Hi Laura,
Thanks so much for your honest feedback.
We do have some bidders that have been with us for a while and are more active than others. Recently we added a 50 wins per week limit on all auctions on DealDash. After implementing this we saw the number of unique winners increase by approximately 30%. We’ve also been adding more One Per User auctions, as well as previous promotions where auctions cannot be exchanged. With that said, the majority of auctions are not exchanged and the winning bidder receives the item they won.
We, of course, are hoping you can win many of these 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. Some of the most successful bidders use Buy it Now, meaning they either win for a great deal or buy the item they want anyway and get all the bids back.

DealDash is a scam. You pay a ridiculous amount for bids that are only worth a penny. I used 827 bids just to try to win 950 bids. I felt like I had to keep going because I had already wasted $50 so quickly. Even the people that win end up paying way more then the product is worth when you add up how much they paid for bids and the product. I saw someone paid $40,000 for a truck that was worth $27,000. I will never use this site again, and I will tell everyone I know to never use it too. I forgot to mention, I was charged $78 just for signing up for the site to start off with bids. I just wanted to check the site out first. I made the mistake of buying a second package for $38 because it said the bids would be worth 13 cents, and they weren't.
Hi Patrick,
Thank you for your honest feedback.
I'm sorry to hear that you didn't win the 950 Bid Pack auction after investing 827 bids in it. I can certainly understand your disappointment.
Did you know that we have a Second Chance Guarantee? 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. These have already been added for you if you want to give the auctions another try.
Your satisfaction is important to us and if you're still not happy with your DealDash experience, we also have a 100% money-back guarantee on your first bid pack purchase.
Our contact details are below if you'd like to discuss this or have any other questions.
To answer your other points, we, unfortunately, cannot offer price matching with traditional retailers like Home Depot but instead offer a unique, entertaining alternative to shopping which we hope provides fun as well as great deals. Also, the estimated winner's cost is based on a bid price of 20c/bid, however, as you mentioned you can purchase bids as low as 13c and there are various ways to earn free bids.
I hope this helps. We're available 24/7 below if there's anything more we can assist you with.

I have been on the site for years now. When I first started using it site auctions could be won. Now it seems that there is always one more bid. Almost seems like people have unlimited bids and drive the price of items up. Gift cards use to be something that you could bid on and at least get face value when you bought them after not winning and the bid price ends up more that the value of the gift card. And talking about gift cards you can not even get a gift card without having a bid pack added to the price. So now even gift cards are over priced.
Hi Kevin,
Thank you for your honest review here.
I'm very sorry for any frustrations you have experienced.
Based on customer feedback like yours, we have made a number of changes on DealDash since you began with us back in 2012. We hope these have been for the better, however, your comments
Are invaluable in empowering our team to create more positive change on DealDash. I’ll make sure that your voice is heard in our ongoing discussions about how we can improve.

Your friends from DealDash.
They do not say DealDash penny is really. 20 cent. For every dollar you bid is 20 dollars. One day FCC will step in get them for false add of penny site. No one ever got nothing for a penny. I hate the T. V. lie. I won a new bike for $10. Telling a total lie. The $10 was really dealdash plan of $200 in real time money. Why dose DealDash tell lies and try scam like penny site lie.
I love to win things from Deal Dash. They have great items. They are a vert trustworthy site. Will continue to bid and hope to win something I like.

Have a lovely day!
Having been a member/sucker since Dec. 2016 it came to my attention there are 30 or so players who win 98% of ALL the "high end" merchandise. (I question there pricing) As mentioned by others they seem to have Unlimited Bids, hence you haven't got a prayer of winning those items. Many items are marked as"1" meaning you can only win the item once, that is a FARCE. The 98%ers I mentioned win these items numerous times, generally with at least 6 months between wins. I contacted DD about this & was told they were winning same item but NOT from auctions marked as "1". BULL!
Hi Norm,
My name is James, and I am writing on behalf of DealDash’s Customer Support Team.
First off, I want to thank you for sharing your feedback. I will make sure your message gets shared with the rest of our Team. It’s feedback like yours that have helped us introduce features such as a limit of 50 auctions wins per week, When this was launched we then saw the number of unique auction winners increase by ~30%.
DealDash has two types of auctions: one-per-user auction types and one-per-30 days auction types. These auction types have different and separate winning limits so users are allowed to participate and potentially win both auctions according to their individual winning limits in the same 30 day period. And with that said, we’re also adding more One Per User auctions based on customer feedback like yours.
Improving and making DealDash even better is an ongoing mission, and if you have any further ideas on how we could make the auctions on DealDash more fun and exciting for everyone our Customer Support Team is available just one click away - 24/7!

Thank you once again for your time, and have a great day!
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.
