DealDash Tips for Balanced Bidding

Today DealDash is going to give you some tips today on balanced bidding. Read on to become a better bidder.

What do I mean by “balanced bidding?” Balanced bidding is a technique I like to use to ensure that I am not wasting too many bids at once on the same auction. Balanced bidding is important because even though you can get bids on DealDash at a very low price they still add up pretty quickly and you can bust your budget quickly if you aren’t thrifty and frugal with your bidding. Here are some ideas to keep your bidding balanced and your budget in check.

If you’re bidding in more than 2 or 3 auctions at one time I would advise you to stop. If you’re letting your attention go in 6 different directions and aren’t paying attention to the auctions that you are the most interested in, then you’re not practicing balanced bidding. The BidBuddy is there to help you every step of the way, of course, but if you’re participating in a few hot auctions at once you’ll want to try and monitor your BidBuddies that you have set up. You’ll want to monitor them to ensure that they have enough bids, that you aren’t coming too close to the BIN (Buy It Now) price, and once the auction has gotten down to just a couple of bidders it’s smart to keep an eye on the auction.

Part of balanced bidding also includes not “stomping” on other people’s bids – it’s not only a waste of bids but also makes people upset at you and more likely to bid against you out of spite when they might have otherwise moved on to another auction.

Balanced bidding is an important part of enjoying your time on DealDash, and making sure that you are using your bids wisely. When you use your bids wisely, use your friend the BidBuddy, use the awesome BIN feature, and are a polite bidder you will have the maximum amount of fun on DealDash. And isn’t fun what auctions and entertainment shopping is all about?

DealDash Tips for Buying Bids

If you’ve been waiting around for a great sale on bids on DealDash, then you’ll want to read on, because I have some information that you’re going to want to read.

Here it is, the middle of December, and you are ready to finally bite the bullet and jump in a DealDash auction for that new TV, laptop, or tablet that you think would make a perfect gift for your friend or family member. But wait! You only have a few hundred bids in your account; that’s just not going to cut it for a high-end electronic device that 50 other bidders are interested in winning. If you’re ready to “go all the way” and bid up to the BIN (Buy It Now) limit, then you’re going to need to buy some bids.

How many bids will you need to buy? Well, it’s up to you, of course, but a great thing to do when deciding how many bids to purchase is to do a little research on your product of choice. Click on the DealDash auction that you are interested in, and look to the left of the screen. Under the picture of the item will be a box that includes information about the previous auctions for the same item. The box will include the date of the previous auction, the amount that the item sold for, and the winning bidder. With this information in hand, you can get a rough estimate of how many bids you might need to spend to become the winning bidder or to BIN the item.

For example, if you are planning on entering a DealDash auction for a tablet, and you open up the auction’s page and see that it usually goes for around $25 at auction, and has a $300 BIN price, then you will need to do a few calculations. How many bids you will need to reach the BIN price depends on the price of bids that day. Say the bids are currently selling for .14 – You just need to take $300, divide it by .14, and you have your answer – 2142 bids! However, you will want to monitor this auction as it gets closer to the ending if this is a regular auction, because if you end up winning, then you will still have to pay the final auction price.

If you aren’t going to be able to watch the end of the auction, you might want to consider that if the average tablet auction is ending at $25, then you might only want to put in $275 worth of bids, which would be 1964 bids. If this is during a special promotion such as a “Free Auction Weekend,” then this doesn’t apply, of course.

I hope that you found this DealDash Tips article helpful. Remember, buy your bids in advance, so you get the best possible price instead of waiting until the last minute and having to pay whatever the bid price happens to be that particular day. Go check out the auctions on DealDash. Good luck and happy bidding, everyone!

DealDash Tips to Outsmart Others

Everyone likes to think that they are the smartest person in the room. How would YOU like to be the smartest person in the auction? Let DealDash Tips help.

Okay, I can’t make you the smartest person on DealDash, but I can teach you a few little mind games to help you outsmart the others in the auctions. Are using mind games on DealDash considered cheating? Of course not! Everyone on DealDash is encouraged to play and bid exactly as they want, and they are free to play mind games as well. That’s the great thing about DealDash – you can do it “your way” as long as you follow the (few) simple rules. Now, who wants to win some auctions?

When thinking about mind games and DealDash, the first thing that comes to my mind are the “Stompers.” You know them, the people who choose to bid directly after you instead of letting you have your clock time. Well, if you want to play mind games, then stomp away. When a stomper enters into an auction, they are immediately the most disliked person in the room. However, this can work to your advantage, because unless there is a very determined and angry person in the auction with you, most people will just stop bidding and let the stomper and the BidBuddies battle it out. Once you’ve defeated the BidBuddies, then the auction is yours! I don’t suggest using this technique unless you are committed to BINning (Buying It Now) the auction. Also, this is not a good way to make friends.

Another mind game that you can play on DealDash is the 10 bid/BIN strategy. The 10 bid/BIN strategy is one of my personal favorites. This strategy really only works if you bid very frequently on DealDash – people have to recognize your name for this to work. This strategy entails BINning at least half of the auctions that you participate in – but sometimes you have to BIN to WIN! The other half of the auctions you put ridiculously low numbers of bids such as 1-10 into your BidBuddy. That way people have NO idea if you are going to BIN the item or stop bidding after only a few bids. If you’re in an auction and people, recognize you as the person who normally BINs the auction – well, they might not bother wasting any bids if they feel you’re planning on “going all the way.”

These are just a couple of mind games that you can play on DealDash. I hope that you found this DealDash Tips article helpful. DealDash has everything that you need for your home as well as great gift items. Visit DealDash now to see how much you can save. Good luck and happy bidding everyone!!

DealDash Tips for Understanding the Auctions

After signing up for DealDash there’s a lot to learn. Here are some tips from DealDash to understand how to bid and win auctions.

Before you place any bids on DealDash it’s wise to understand exactly how DealDash is played. DealDash is not like a traditional auction, where people start throwing out high bids from the beginning – Quite to the contrary. DealDash auctions all start at 1 cent, and each time a person bids the auction increases by 1 cent. It’s important to note, however, that each bid that is placed is not free, bids are purchased before you can bid in the auction.

Now that you know the basic idea of how DealDash shopping entertainment auctions work, it’s important that you know the rules. There are very few “firm” rules that are put into place by DealDash, you can choose whatever bidding style that you like and bid or not bid on things as you please. The few rules that DealDash has set must be followed, though, so please read through them. The House Rules are put in place to make things as fair and honest for everyone. Here’s a quick overview of the rules– but please check out the full version so you don’t accidentally get yourself into trouble.

Each person can only have 1 account, no exceptions.
You can win the same item only once per week.
You absolutely may not bid in the same auction with your family members, friends, or acquaintances.
You may not use any type of bidding software to automatically bid for you except the BidBuddy which is provided to everyone free of charge.
Your user name cannot be vulgar or obscene, and it also can’t mislead people into thinking that you are a DealDash employee, either.
DealDash employees and immediate family are not allowed to bid on auctions.

After you have purchased your bids and understand exactly how the auctions are played, and read through the rules, then it’s time to bid! Please make sure that you do some research before you start placing bids randomly. If you place your bids randomly here and there it’s very unlikely that you will win.
