Why Shoppers Love DealDash

By Barbara

I’ve said it before–Winning is not everything on DealDash.com because that is not the only benefit and/or reason shoppers love DealDash.com.

Other than getting great bargains or buying quality products, here are some other reasons we love shopping on DealDash:

Convenience

Stores seldom have enough electronic mobile smart carts to go around for senior citizens and/or physically challenged customers who need them to get around. Therefore, shopping from the comfort of home is a huge benefit. Customers do not have to wait for a mobile cart to become available. Shopping from home also means no parking hassles, no crowds to fight and saves gas. Most of all, shopping on DealDash means having packages delivered to our front door, postage free. Now that’s convenient!

Fun and entertainment

Let’s face it. Shopping in stores can be rather boring. In fact, trying to find the products we want in stores often feels more like work. Shopping on DealDash takes the work out of shopping and makes it fun and entertaining instead. We can quickly find what we want and then have fun while trying to win a bargain. If we do not win a bargain, all we have to do is buy-it-now at retail, get all our bids back free and the products we were shopping for will be delivered to our front door, postage free. Then we can use those same bids to play in another auction. How fun is that?

Discover New Products

DealDash customers are often introduced to new products. Many times I see new, unique products for the first time on DealDash that I never before saw in local department stores. I never know what new product I might discover next.

DD Tips – Don’t Throw Away Those Bids!

Don’t throw away your DealDash bids! Here are some tips to make the most of your bids.

Do you have a healthy supply of bids in your bid bank? Even if you have thousands of bids, you still shouldn’t throw them away or waste them. Each bid typically costs between .13-.60, you should think about each and every bid before you decide to use it. Be frugal with your bids, use them on things that you really love, and plan ahead. Here are some tips from DealDash to help conserve your bids.

Earn Free Bids From DealDash

If your bid bank is low on bids, or even if it’s full of bids, you should still take advantage of DealDash‘s FREE bids. DealDash makes it easy for you to win and earn free bids. There is a FaceBook contest every week for the best photo the winner gets a free 1,000 bid pack!

Want to collect free bids by just visiting DealDash? Every consecutive day that you visit DealDash and place at least one bid you will be given free bids from 4 to 30. The more days in a row that you come bid the more free bids you will earn. You will earn more free bids every day until you have reached the maximum of 30 bids – after that, each day you come and place a bid on DealDash you will receive another 30 bids! This will go on until you miss a day. After that, you will start out at the bottom again and have to work your way back up.

BIN and BidBuddy, Your Partners in Winning

Don’t waste your bids – use your BidBuddy! If you’re not using your BidBuddy during DealDash then you’re wasting bids. The BidBuddy will bid in turn with the other BidBuddies, and will never double bid or bid in the wrong order. Even when you are doing everything “right” including using the BidBuddy, you might not win. When you don’t win, the only way to not waste those bids that you used is to do a BIN.

Doing a BIN (Buy It Now) on DealDash means that if you don’t win an auction you can receive all of your bids back when you pay the retail price of the item. DealDash will return all of the bids you used on that item to you, and you can try again on a different auction. You will also even get free shipping on the item, and all items come with a manufacturer’s warranty.

Smart Shopper Tips On DealDash

By Barbara

Are you a smart shopper on DealDash.com?

Smart shoppers do not win auctions by accident. They win on purpose. Win or BIN (Buy It Now), if you are a smart shopper, you can win on purpose, too.

Here is a list of some things smart shoppers on DealDash do:

Always use BidBuddy, the automated bidder. If you do not know how to find BidBuddy, you need to read Tips & Tricks, or ask.
Always purchase and stock up on bids when they are on sale.
Get as many free bids as possible by sending in a selfie every week with a winning product, and by placing at least one bid every day.
Never play when you are too tired to stay awake.
Always bid when the competition is low. Count the number of players who are in the same auction. If there are 20 competitors or less in the same auction, it should be easy to win.
Focus on one auction at a time. If you place all your bids in one auction, and you do not win, then all you have to do is a buy-it-now on that one product to get all your bids back.

If you bid on several auctions, you will have to purchase several products to get all your bids back.

After placing at least one bid, so you do not get locked out, be patient enough to wait until the auction is down to only two players to place the rest of your bids.

By doing what smart shoppers do, you can take the risk out of playing and win on purpose, too.

Tips for Being Persistent on DealDash

DealDash

An important key to winning auctions on DealDash is persistence. Read on for more information.

Are you a person who doesn’t “take no for an answer”? If so, you should have no trouble winning auctions on DealDash. After all, you are in control. If you truly want to win an auction, you just have to keep bidding until the others have dropped out. Persistence is an excellent trait to have in life and is especially helpful when bidding on DealDash. Want to find out more? Keep reading.

You can be the Winner

If there’s an item that you are absolute, 100% sure that you want, you can win it! Simply put in as many as many bids as it will take to reach the BIN (Buy It Now) price of the item. You can figure this out by following a simple formula, which I will outline down below. If you don’t end up being the winner of the auction, you can then do a BIN on the auction. You will then receive the item that you wanted, along with free shipping and you will get all of your bids back. You can use them right then or wait until another day. It’s your choice, totally up to you!

BIN Formulas

There are two different formulas that you need to know when thinking about doing a Buy It Now on a DealDash auction. The first one applies when it’s a “Free Auction Weekend”, and the other one applies when the auctions are regular price. DealDash has Free Auction Weekends so often that it’s worth mentioning the formula to follow to figure out how many bids you need.

Free Auction Weekend – Price of the item divided price per bid that you paid. I/PPB

Regular Priced Auctions – Price of the item minus the price you THINK the auction will end at (Auction Final Value), divided by per bid that you paid. I-AFV/PPB

Using the BidBuddy

So you see, it’s really easy to find out exactly how many bids that you need to place to reach the BIN value of any auction. Luckily, DealDash offers the BidBuddy to use on each and every auction. When using the BidBuddy you are assured that you don’t waste your bids. When you do single-bidding it’s possible to accidentally bid “out of order”, which means that you are placing more bids than you need to place. When you use the BidBuddy, each of the BidBuddies in the auction take turns bidding with each other, in order. The person who has placed the most bids into the BidBuddy will be the final bidder (unless someone single bids), and will be the winner.
