DealDash Tips You Need Now

DealDash

Do you know everything there is to know about DealDash? Probably not – there are always things to learn. Here are some DealDash tips that you need to know about now.

If you’re a regular bidder on DealDash, you are probably aware that things change and evolve on a regular basis. DealDash has been going strong since February of 2009, and things are so different now than they were in the beginning. Things are never stale and stagnant on DealDash! With all of the different changes that have happened on DealDash over the years, it’s important for you to keep up with the tips, tricks, and suggestions that the DealDash Tips blog offers. Here are some tips that you need to keep in mind right now.

Check DealDash Every Day – Things Change Quickly

Personally, I am guilty of forgetting to check in on DealDash every day if I have a busy day with my kids. Unfortunately, that’s bad for me, because not only do I miss out on seeing what prices the bids are on those days, but I also miss out on FREE DealDash bids for bidding.

Yes, that’s right, DealDash gives you free bids every single day for just stopping by and placing a few bids. Does that sound too good to be true? Yes, I admit that it does sound too good to be true – but it IS TRUE. DealDash will give you free bids for coming by on consecutive days and bidding. You start off with a few free bids, and you can work your way up to 30 free bids for just coming by and bidding on consecutive days. It’s so easy, and I have won many auctions for 30 bids or less in my years on DealDash.

Use Your Best Judgement

Sometimes you’re in an auction and you know that you aren’t going to win. What should you do? Here are a few options to choose from:

Keep bidding until you win, no matter what. AKA Power Bidding.
Stop bidding, close your computer, and feel sad about your lost bids.
Stop bidding, and do a BIN (Buy It Now) on the auction.

Personally, I would do Option # 3 – Stop bidding, and do a BIN (Buy It Now) on the auction. Are you familiar with the concept of BINning an auction? Simply put, it means that you purchase the item that you were bidding on for the regular retail price, and DealDash will give you back all of the bids that you spent. Sounds like a great deal, right? That’s right! It’s a great DealDash Deal. Take advantage of it, it’s available on every auction to every person who placed bids.

DealDash Tips: Abbreviations Explained

DealDash

DealDash is easy to use but has some abbreviations that can be a little confusing for the first-time user. Here is a list of some of the common DealDash abbreviations and phrases.

When you think of a community you think of people who are similar in one way or the other, right? Maybe they live near each other, have the same hobbies, or a common background. DealDash is its own community with like-minded individuals who love deals and the thrill of an auction. And with any community, DealDash has it’s own little lingo, phrases, and abbreviations that other people might not understand at first. Here are some of the more common ones, from DealDash Tips blog.

No Jumper $3 or $5

DealDash auctions have a $3 or $5 No Jumper limit. This means that you have to get at least one bid in the auction before the auction reaches $3 or $5. The auctions are typically a $5 No Jumper, but there are days here and there that DealDash lowers the limit to $3. These are very popular days to bid. It will be marked very clearly on the main auction home screen when DealDash changes it to a $3 No Jumper instead of $5.

Buy It Now (BIN) the Auction

BIN, or Buy It Now is the most popular abbreviation that we will ever talk about on any of the DealDash blogs. BIN simply means that you have lost the auction that you have been bidding in and are willing to buy it for the retail price and receive all of your bids back from DealDash. You also get the luxury of free shipping as well, with tracking. The tracking doesn’t apply to gift cards, but to all other purchases with BIN, even the smallest or cheapest. After you have decided that you are going to BIN the auction that you have been participating in, then just hit the “Buy It Now” button that you will see either in your dashboard or on the auction’s page if the auction is still live. Once you have paid then the bids will be refunded immediately.

BookMarking an Auction

DealDash has so many auctions it’s hard to remember which auction is coming up. However, DealDash has come up with an easy way to remember what you wanted to bid on. When you are on DealDash and see an item that is coming soon you can bookmark it. Click your mouse on the small outline of a star in the upper corner on the right-hand side of the auction and you have bookmarked yourself an auction. The little star will turn solid, and the auction is now pinned to your DealDash home page.

Tips for Loving DealDash Even More

There are lots of reasons to love DealDash. Here are just a few to remind you how great DealDash really is.

DealDash is the longest running pay-to-bid site around, and many people profess their affection for DealDash on the Facebook page as well as on SiteJabber. DealDash is easy to love. Most people who regularly read this blog know about features like BidBuddy and Buy It Now (BIN). Here are some other really good reasons to keep coming back again and again.

Awesome Reviews on SiteJabber

I mentioned SiteJabber above, and if you’re not familiar with it, SiteJabber is an independent website that accepts reviews for other websites such as DealDash. You can go to SiteJabber and search for any website and see the independent reviews that people have left for them. DealDash has a total of 3,883 reviews on SiteJabber, and a score of 4 out of 5 stars. An overwhelming 2,809 are actually 5-star reviews, and 448 of them are 4-star reviews. The 1 and 2-star reviews added together are barely even 400.

As a smart consumer, it’s important to read reviews of businesses and form your own thoughts and opinions about the company. I urge you to go check out DealDash on SiteJabber because you can get a very good picture of how things are run. I especially like how DealDash customer service responds to the bad reviews, it shows that they really care what the customers think.

Huge Product Selection

DealDash has a really great variety and array of products. It seems like a lot of other bidding sites only have electronics, or only have gift cards. There are so many different categories and different items within each category. I love how the selection changes often as well. Personally, I am a huge fan of the fact that they have a lot of jewelry on there now. There are also a good amount of decorative things on there now as well. I am an art lover, and I need more decorations for my house. It’s awesome to be able to find such good things on DealDash.

24/7, Baby!

Finally, another reason to fall in love with DealDash a little more is the fact that they are a 24/7 operation. Many of the other bidding sites have set times and hours and days. Not DealDash. They are there for you no matter what your schedule. That’s a huge perk for people who work odd hours.

I hope this article has encouraged you to think about the reasons to love DealDash. Go ahead check out the auctions on DealDash. Visit DealDash now to see what’s up for bid. DealDash has everything you need. Good luck and happy bidding everyone!

Tips to Get the Most Fun from DealDash

DealDash is all about having fun! Here are some tips and tricks to get the most fun out of your DealDash experience.

Bidding on DealDash isn’t a chore like slogging through the store can be – it’s a fun and exciting experience that is enjoyable for the whole family. If you’re not having a fun time when you’re bidding on DealDash, then you might not be doing it correctly, so I am here to give you some tips and pointers on how to make your time on DealDash be both fun and rewarding.

Don’t Bid Solo! Get the Family Involved

Now, don’t get me wrong – you have to be an adult to have a DealDash account. However, just because your kids or grandkids can’t bid doesn’t mean that they can’t help you find cool things to bid on. There is a whole category on DealDash that is called “Hobbies, Toys, Outdoors, and Games” – which are all things that kids love! They also might enjoy looking in the “Computers and Electronics” category as well. No matter what your kids enjoy doing, they will be able to find something on DealDash that they will love.

Be Sure That You Use Bookmarking and Alerts

Have you used the search function on DealDash? If you see something that you like that isn’t currently up for bid, then you can set an alert for the item. Simply click the button that says “Alert me” and DealDash will send you an email when DealDash has scheduled an auction for this item. DealDash will alert you when the auction is starting within a couple of days, and then again when the auction is starting within a couple of hours.

Bookmarking is a handy feature to use if you see something that DealDash has already scheduled to be up for auction. When you look ahead to future auctions that have already been scheduled, you will see a little outline of a star in the upper right corner. If you want to bookmark this auction, then click the star. It will turn yellow, and the auction will be moved to your home screen on the main auction page.

When you use both of these features, bookmarking and alerts, then you can be sure that you never miss an auction that you are really excited about winning! When it comes to thinking about fun, winning things that you truly love definitely tops that list!
