New Auctions on DealDash

Attention all former DealDash.com customers!

Has it been a while since you checked out this awesome shopping site? If so, it might be a good idea to go online to take a look at some of the latest changes and auctions that are now available.

DealDash is constantly changing. For example, did you know that sometimes DealDash offers your first bid pack purchase of the day for a rock-bottom sale price of only 12 cents a bid? It would be a shame if former customers missed out on something like this and/or the newest items.

Some New Items

I cannot list all of the newest auctions, but let’s take a look at some products the average shopper might not be aware of and find rather interesting:

  • Dyson Pure Cool Link Desk Air Multiplier – white/silver – Buy-it-now price $449.00. This item caught my eye because I’m sure we all want to breathe clean air. This Dyson air purifying fan uses the latest technology to capture 99.97 percent of microscopic allergens and pollutants as small as 0.3 microns to its filter. Go to the DealDash home page and get all the details.
  • IRobot Braava 380t Floor Mopping Robot – Buy-it-now price $299.00. Can you imagine this? We can now get a product that will actually mop the floor for us. That might be better than paying for a maid. Advanced robotic technology allows the Braava™ Floor Mopping robot to know where it’s been and where it needs to go as it systematically covers the floor in a single pass. Using disposable or microfiber cleaning cloths, it picks up dirt, hair and dust from hard-surface floors such as tile, vinyl, hardwood and laminate.
  • New 2018 and 2019 vehicles that have a Buy-it-now price ranging from $20,000.00 to $28,000.00. Can you imagine how exciting it would be to win a new vehicle on DealDash at a bargain price? Well, now it could happen. The 2018 vehicles include a Toyota, Jeep Renegade and Nissan Frontier King Cab. The 2019 vehicles include a Honda, Chevrolet Trax LS, Nissan Sentra SV and a Chevrolet Cruze Sedan Lt. See details on these vehicles on the DealDash home page and I’m sure new ones will come later on.

One per Customer

Have you noticed that some DealDash.com auctions have a yellow 1 at the top left corner of the listing?

I like auctions with the yellow 1 because this means that each shopper can only win one. After winning one, the winning bidder gets locked out from winning any more of that particular item.

By preventing all shoppers from winning more than one each of specific items, it gives other shoppers more room to win the auction, too. But not all auctions are the same. In some cases, we might see the same auction item, but only one will have the yellow 1, and many others will not.

For example, the Bolvaint Adelais Lambskin Moto Jacket — Women’s XL — Buy It Now price $3,400.00 now has the yellow 1. However, many other auctions with the exact same item do not. Therefore, shoppers can still win duplicate items whenever they are listed without a yellow 1.

Therefore, if we only want to bid in auctions where power bidders are now blocked from winning again, we must look for the ones with the yellow 1.

Some other high-dollar auctions that have the yellow 1, indicating one win per customer, are:

  • All of the brand new vehicles –truck, cars and jeep
  • Various hand-made Barrow Shack sculptures
  • Sony XBR75X900F 75-Inch 4K Ultra HD Smart LED TV (2018 Model) and other similar items
  • Various large oil paintings from the Far East Collection
  • The 800 Bid Pack

More auctions also have the yellow 1, but I cannot list them all. I always look for the yellow 1 because these auctions give all DealDash shoppers a level field to win some high-dollar items.

Featured Special Events

Do you have a favorite featured “special event” when shopping on DealDash.com?

To keep its auctions fun and exciting, DealDash offers many different “special events” on a rotating basis.

Favorite Special Events

When shopping on DealDash, two of my favorite “special events” are:

  • 2X to 4X on the timer — By shopping on DealDash during this featured “special event” our green line (bottom right) moves to the right two to four times faster. Therefore, even if we do not win the auction, all is not lost because at least we will receive our free bid pack at the end much sooner.
  • 50 percent off to the winner — During this featured “special event” DealDash pays half of the tab of the final selling price, whatever it may be, when the auction closes. Therefore, winners of these auctions have to pay only half of the selling cost and the cost of the bids used to win the auction.

Consistency

Perhaps consistency is one of the most important things we need to win more auctions on DealDash.com.

If we consistently place bids in an auction, we will most likely eventually win it. To get a good idea how many bids it might take to win an auction, however, we should check to see how many bids previous winners placed in the same auction. Then, after we purchase our bids, we could try one of the following:

  1. Place all of our bids into BidBuddy, the automated bidder. Then consistently add more bids and never stop until we win. Unfortunately, some customers end up over-bidding the value of the auction and never stop even when it makes more sense to BIN.
  2. Place only some bids at the beginning into BidBuddy. Then only place more bids whenever the auction gets down to two or three players. This option could work well if we have the time to closely monitor the auction.
  3. Place some bids at the beginning, and continue to place another 10 bids for every dollar amount the auction price goes up. Rationing our bids to make them last longer could work, but we run the risk not having any bids there when the auction closes.
  4. Place some bids at the beginning of the auction and then wait until the auction reaches the average closing price before we add the rest of our bids. Adding several bids at the point where the auction usually closes could work.
  5. Place some bids at the beginning of the auction every time that particular auction is listed. If we look at the selling prices, we will see that most auctions will eventually sell low. If we consistently place bids at the beginning each and every time this item goes up for auction, we have a good chance of being there when it sells low. In other words, we might have a much better chance of winning an auction by placing 50 bids in the auction 12 times (every time it goes up for auction) than we would by placing all 600 bids or more in one auction.

If one method does not work, it might be time to try another. We all need to figure out for ourselves which system works best based on our own personal budget.
