DealDash Tips

Did you see the coat auctions on DealDash.com? These coats are sure to keep anyone as snug as a bug.

I get cold very easily and I’m constantly striving to stay warm. That’s why I prefer warm-weather climates to cold-weather climates. That’s also why the elegant and warm coats now listed on DealDash immediately caught my attention. Let’s take a look.

Rabbit fur coats

According to the auction description, this fully-lined coat shell is 100 percent polyester and the shell is 100 percent rabbit fur exterior. Another great feature is that this lightweight but durable coat has a drawstring at the waist which provides the option of making it form fitting or wearing it loose. While it looks glamourous, it is also practical, and can be used when dressing up or down. For more detailed information, see the auction description.

When I first saw the rabbit fur coats come with a BIN of $2,752.00 I hesitated to place any bids because I did not think I would ever have enough bids to win such a high-dollar item – Wrong!

After taking a closer look, I noticed several DealDash shoppers were able to win this rabbit fur coat at huge bargain prices, using as few as only 9 bids. For example:

• Jan. 5, this fur coat sold at 58 cents and the winner paid a total of $2.78 including the cost of the 11 bids placed;
• Jan. 6, this fur coat sold at $3.92 and the winner paid a total of $2.78 including the cost of the 9 bids placed;
• Jan. 14, this fur coat sold at $1.84 and the winner paid a total of $9.38 including the cost of the 46 bids placed; and
• Jan. 19, this fur coat sold at $3.56 and the winner paid a total of $3.98 including the cost of the 11 bids placed.

This rabbit fur coat does not yet have customer reviews.

Wool Jackets

Everybody knows that wool is warm. According to the auction description, these 100 percent high-grade Alpaca wool jackets are also fully lined with soft polyester and they feature two deep pockets. For more detail, see the auction description.

These jackets have a BIN of $1,600.00 and I did not believe I would have enough bids to win this jacket either. However, other past winners were able to win with a fairly small number of bids, so why not me, too. For example:

• Jan. 16, this wool jacket sold at $2.48 and the winner paid a total of $21.05 including the cost of the 104 bids placed;
• Jan. 5, this wool jacket sold at $1.79 and the winner paid a total of $12.79 including the cost of the 55 bids placed; and
• Dec. 30, 2022, this wool jacket sold at $1.59 and the winner paid a total of $7.99 including the cost of the 36 bids placed.

Therefore, it is also possible to win this high-dollar wool jacket at a bargain price, too. We just need to keep an eye on this wool jacket and bid when the competition is low. So I’ll see you in the auctions.

I don’t know why I never before saw the knife roll that can contain up to six professional knives.

This auction has obviously been on DealDash.com for a long time because it has already received 141 customer reviews. After receiving that many reviews and still maintain an overall score of 4.83 out of a possible 5.0 is really good.

At first I was surprised to see the BIN of $185 for this knife roll until I realized it does not include the 6 knives. It’s important to read the description carefully so we know the knives are sold separately.

Nonetheless, this high-quality knife-roll is handcrafted from heavy duty canvas and takes up less space than a knife box. The weight of the knife roll is 1-pound without the knives.  

             

                                                                                                                                                                                                              So far, many previous visitors received awesome deals. For example:

• Jan. 10, this knife roll sold at 16 cents and the winner paid a total of only $1.36 including the cost of the 6 bids placed;
• Jan. 12, this knife roll sold at $1.46 and the winner paid a total of $7.46 including the 30 bids placed; and
• Jan. 13, this knife roll sold at $1.15 and the winner paid a total of $3.95 including the 14 bids placed.

The heavy-duty black canvas roll measures 17-inches by 5-inches when rolled up and 17-inches by 16-inches when open.

Brief knife roll history

A knife roll is a transportation device where we can carry our kitchen knives from place to place without worrying about them knocking against each other or becoming damaged

According to my research, a knife roll is the best option for knife storage and accessibility for a chef, and the best knife roll for chefs is one that is durable and won’t get punctured by freshly sharpened knives

Leather knife rolls usually contain additional pockets for tools such as meat thermometers, kitchen shears and other accessories.

When I’m working with a limited number of bids, I look for a low-BIN auction that often sells for 31 bids or less.

Even when we are going through tough times with limited funds, we should still log in to DealDash every day. Who knows, in a few months or a year from now our tight budget might get better, and we would not want to miss out on any of the new items that sell at a bargain price.

We can still win auctions with a limited-number of bids if we focus on low-BIN auctions. Let’s take a close look at a few of them below.

Fashion Necklace

I see an 18K Gold Plated Blue Mini Triangle Fashion Necklace with the low-BIN of $90 that often sold to winners for 31 bids or less. If you prefer wearing a mini but nice necklace, this one might put a smile on your face. Just yesterday (as of this writing) this necklace once again sold at a bargain price. For example:

• Jan. 11, this fashion necklace sold at 58 cents and the winner paid a total of $1.14 including the cost of the 5 bids placed;
• Jan. 8, this necklace sold at $1.58 and the winner paid a total of $1.99 including the cost of the 8 bids placed;
• Jan. 14, this necklace sold at 10 cents and the winner paid a total of only 81 cents including the cost of the 4 bids placed;
• Jan. 15 (today), this necklace told at 25 cents and the winner paid a total of $2.45 including the cost of the 11 bids placed.

Out of the last 14 auctions, 6 of the winners used less than 19 bids. That means almost half of these DealDashers used 20 bids or less to win.

Foundation Cosmetics

I see a set of 5 bottles of Foundation Cosmetics with the low-BIN of $115. This auction often sold to winners for 31 bids or less. In fact (as of this writing), the winner used 31 bids or less in 31 of the last 49 auctions. Therefore, I would say this is another easy-to-win low-BIN auction. For example:

• Jan. 6, this auction sold at 2 cents and the winner paid a total of 21 cents including the cost of the 1 bid placed;
• Jan. 8, this auction sold at 26 cents and the winner paid a total of $1.26 including the cost of the 6 bids placed;
• Jan. 10, this set of Foundation Makeup sold at $4.03 and the winner paid a total of $7.63 including the cost of the 18 bids placed;
• Jan. 14, this set of Foundation Makeup sold at 15 cents and the winner paid a total of 61 cents counting the cost of the 3 bids placed.

The bottom line

If we look for low-BIN auctions we can find auctions we can win with 31 bids or less, and the best thing about bidding in a low-BIN auction is that if we do not win it, we can probably afford to use BIN and get all of our bids back for free.

Did you see the inflatable standup paddle board that DealDash.com has up for auction? It’s not too early to plan ahead and get ready for some fun in the spring.

The paddle board has a BIN of $762.00 but so far 17 of the last 19 winners got it for less. Let’s take a look at some of the best deals past winners received:

• Jan. 6, this inflatable standup paddle board sold at $8.81 and the winner paid a total of $50.80 including the cost of the 243 bids placed.
• Jan. 2, this paddle board sold at $50.59 and the winner paid a total of $25.45 including the cost of the 64 bids placed. It must have sold during a special when the winner gets 50 to 90 percent off.
• Dec. 26, this paddle board sold at $12.13 and the winner paid a total of $36.33 including the cost of the 121 bids placed.

This auction includes 1 paddle board, 1 durable backpack, 1 hand pump with pressure gauge, 1 10-inch ankle leash, 1 compact 3-piece aluminum paddle and 1 repair kit.

I was surprised to learn that inflatable paddle boards exist, but they must be very sturdy because they support a rider weight up to 308 pounds and, according to the auction description, its square tail also provides more stability through bumps on the water. The 3-layer structure makes these paddle boards more durable, too

Perhaps another advantage of being inflatable is that it’s easier to carry because it only weighs 25.4 pounds. The inflated size is 10-foot, 6-inches by 32-inches by 6-inches and the maximum pressure is 15 PSI. One more awesome feature is that this paddle board inflates and deflates in just minutes.

Paddle board history

According to my research, Duke Kahanamoku, a famous surfer, is given credit for inventing the paddleboard. Modern standup paddle boarding (SUP) began in the 1940s in Waikiki, Hawaii. However, research records show that earlier forms of SUP have been found as early as 3,000 B.C. in various regions such as Peru, Levant, Italy and China.

Some reasons SUP has become so popular is because (unlike some other water sports) it’s easy to learn and the whole family can get involved – children, seniors and even the family dog.

SUP is a very healthy sport because it uses our leg muscles to maintain our balance. It also utilizes our arms, back, shoulders and abs to propel the paddleboard in the water. The core back and abdominal muscles are constantly used to maintain our balance. Another health benefit is that SUP can also reduce anxiety and depression. It surprised me to learn that scientific studies have shown that simply being near bodies of water can reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression.

While paddle boarding can attract shark, it does not make us more susceptible to shark attacks than other water sports like surfing, swimming, kayaking, or any other surface-level water activity.

The bottom line

Paddle boarding can be healthy and fun for the entire family, and now we have the opportunity to shop for a great paddle board on DealDash.com. Happy shopping everyone!
