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!

The first thing that we have to figure out is what type of guy we are shopping for, because everyone’s different.

Luckily, DealDash has many different categories and types of products, so you will be sure to find something for every man on your shopping list.

Home, Garden, and Tools – When my Dad was alive his favorite hobby was working on his car or building things in his workshop.

This category is packed with home and lawn maintenance gadgets and machines, tools of all types, and also has some art and sculptures if your favorite man is into art. Visit DealDash now to check out the Home, Garden, and Tools category.

Gift Cards – If the man that you’re shopping for is interested in something else – go for a gift card.

After you’ve purchased your first bid pack, it’s time to check out the auctions! You can browse through the front page by simply scrolling down, and you can go up to 10 pages into the future to see what auctions are coming up. When you see an auction that you are interested in, click on the picture of the item to open up the item’s auction page. You can bid directly from the front page, but I wouldn’t advise it. It’s a much better idea to open up the item’s page so you can get all of the information about the auction.

After you have opened up an item’s page, check out the statistics! You can see the item’s picture bigger, the BIN (Buy It Now) price, the current auction price and who is bidding, the prices that the item has sold for previously, and a detailed description of the item. You can set your BidBuddy and place single bids.

Speaking of the BidBuddy, make sure that you use him! He’s easy to use, just open up any DealDash auction, and in the middle of the page you will see “Book a Bid Buddy.” Click on the space where is says “add bids here,” put in as many bids as you would like to spend on this DealDash auction and hit enter. You can put in any number of bids, as long as you have them. You can also cancel a Bid Buddy at any time, and all the bids will go instantly back into your account.

After you have won an auction you can pay for it by navigating to “Your Dashboard,” and clicking “Pay now.” You can pay with a credit or debit card, or even Paypal! After you have paid, wait a day or two, and you will see a tracking number available for your item. DealDash has very fast, and always free shipping. Enjoy your item!
