How DealDash and I Created a Wish List Monster

I’ve won a good deal of auctions on DealDash over the past two years and have enjoyed winning items for my adult children and family members for holidays and birthdays. During that time I’ve largely kept my activity under wraps—that is, until my 27-year-old son spied me trying to win one particular item and exclaimed, “Hey! What is that?” Ut-oh. Busted.

I was caught trying to win him a survival tool I thought would be perfect for him to use while camping or ice fishing, two of the things he loves doing most. This led to him peer over my shoulder and ask, “What else do they have?” Oh no. I fear I have just created a wish list monster.

My son is a hunting, fishing and outdoor enthusiast and it really doesn’t matter what time of year it is here in Upstate New York. When it comes to being outdoors, that’s where you’ll find him most of the time.

From there, my son took over the computer, browsing the auctions and creating a wish list of items he would love to have me win for him on DealDash. Among them are tools, fishing and camping gear, backpacks and more.

I’d already won him a backpack that he and, as it turns out, his friends absolutely rave about. Now I’ve got requests to “get them one too.” Another great item my son set his sights on was a backpack and seat in one. My son said, “Oh wow! I love this! You really need to get this for me.”

To that I simply replied, “I already did. It’s in the box in the living room. I was going to give it to you for Christmas but…”  That’s when he took off like a shot toward the living room and opened his early Christmas gift. I told him he is going to get a big empty box for Christmas now and he said he didn’t care.

He took the backpack with a built-in seat to a music festival that weekend and was the envy of everyone he met.  People would exclaim, “Wow! Is that a backpack and a seat in one?” How cool!” My son described the ease and security of always having your necessities with you—and always having a seat!

Now my son explains to his friends and random people he meets at music festivals how his mom gets these great deals on DealDash—and how he gets Christmas presents throughout the year!

Here’s to successful bidding and awesome wins!

DealDash Power Bidding 101 Tips

DealDash

Many new bidders aspire to be Power Bidders. Here are some tips to get you on your way to becoming DealDash’s newest Power Bidder.

“What is a Power Bidder?” you might ask. A Power Bidder is someone who strives to win each and every auction that they enter, no matter what the cost. Yes, Power Bidders are the people who will bid $40 on a $25 gift card just to prove a point. “Why would I want to do that?” you might ask next. Simple! If can establish yourself as a Power Bidder whose name is fairly well known around DealDash then you can win auctions by just entering them. If you’re a known Power Bidder then many people will drop out of the auction when they see you enter. If you’d like to learn more, then read on.

Buy Lots of Bids (at a Good Price)

If you want to be a Power Bidder then you will need lots and lots of bids. When you first start out attempting to learn how to be a Power Bidder you’ll have to establish a name for yourself by winning many, many auctions. You’ll lose money at first, but once you have shown the other bidders that you mean business and that you’ll bid until you win then other bidders should start to back off when they see you coming.

If you want to establish yourself, however, you’ll want to get your bids as cheaply as possible. You will need to wait until you see the bids on a great sale, then you should buy as many as you can within your budget. The more bids you buy when you see them on a great sale, the fewer bids you will have to buy when they aren’t on a fantastic sale. When you buy bids for the lowest price possible then you increase your bidding power.

Show Up Every Day

Another way to establish yourself as a DealDash Power Bidder is to show up and bid every single day. When you show up every day then the other bidders will get to know your bidding name. When they see your bidding name over and over again, day after day, then they will remember you.

Another added bonus to coming to DealDash every day to bid is that you will receive free bids every day, as well. That’s right, for every consecutive day that you come to bid on DeaDash they will give you free bids. Power Bidder or not, everyone could use free bids! Boost your bidding power by getting free bids from DealDash every day. It’s really a win-win situation!

Thanks for Reading the Tips Blog

I hope this article was helpful for those of you learning about DealDash. It can be fun to be a Power Bidder, but it will take some time and effort to get yourself there. You can do it! I believe in you.

Tips for Innovation on DealDash

DealDash

If you’re looking for tips on innovation for DealDash auctions, you’ve come to the right place. Changing up your approach is a wise thing to do. Read on for more information.

Changing your bidding style and trying to think of new ways to win are the marks of a great bidder on DealDash. However, I realize that sometimes trying to think up new ideas when it comes to DealDash can be tricky! There are so many different registered bidders (over 8 million!) it can be hard to stand out from the pack. Luckily, though, it doesn’t really matter what other people are doing – it just depends on what you’re doing. So being innovative on DealDash really just means to think up some different strategies and styles for yourself. Here are some ideas, from DealDash.

Try a Different Category

One of the most effective tips to be innovative in your DealDash bidding is to bid on a different category than you typically visit. For example, I personally usually stick to the Fashion, Health, and Beauty and Gift Cards categories. I find, though, when I happen to branch out in a different category such as Hobbies, Toys, Outdoors, and Games I usually have fairly good wins. This could just be a coincidence, but it can’t hurt to try!

Change up Your Info

Another way to innovate yourself on DealDash is to change your information such as your avatar and your Bidder’s Bio. If you are not typically a big winner, then I would guess you have lost quite a few auctions to different people. I find that when I enter into an auction with someone that I have gone head-to-head with and beaten before I feel a huge amount of confidence and usually end up winning against them again. Of course, there are so many similar bidder names such as “IdontQuit”, “IwontQuit”,”IcantQuit” I typically remember people by their avatar rather than their name. So if you’ve been on a losing streak lately, why not change your avatar to something completely different?

The same goes for your Bidder’s Bio as well – you can only fit a sentence or two, but I find that it’s much easier to recognize people by their bios than their names, especially if they have one of the easily mistaken names as I mentioned above. Of course, you don’t want to change these things if you have been on a winning streak lately, but if you haven’t, why not change things around? You can always change them back if you’re not happy!
