Buy It Now, BIN & Binning at DealDash

So you love to bid, bid, bid!  It’s fun and exciting especially when you win! The fireworks are awesome! But if you don’t win at DealDash you can Buy It Now (BIN) and DealDash will give you all the bids you used trying back to try and win another item.

You can purchase an item you’ve bid on for up to one week after you don’t win it.  If you go to your Dashboard, you will find a list of all your items right on the front page.  You can also find the item in your bidding history, both places will tell you how many bids will be returned to your account if your BIN.  It’s simple, make the purchase and the bids are automatically loaded into your account.

The way to figure out how many bids to use before you BIN is to take the retail value of the item listed on the DealDash site and divide it by the cost of the bids when you purchase it.  That will result in the number of bids to use before you back out and buy it.

For example, you love this toaster, it’s a popular item, but it will still go for a fraction of the retail price, but you want to be sure you give the auction all the benefit of the doubt and load up on the BIN amount of bids. Let’s say the toaster retails for $89.00 and bids are .15 cents each.  Your calculation will look like this 89./.15=593 bids.

You don’t want to exceed that number of bids because you would then be paying more than retail.  Chances are very good that no one else will place 593 bids on the auction and you will win it for much less, but if you don’t, you have Binning to fall back on.

This is a wonderful gift from DealDash, they really care about the bidding experience on their site, and they really want their players to win.  It doesn’t please them to have you go away empty-handed, you have to win or BIN.  Either way, you have your item!  If you bought it you have your bids back too!  Win-Win!

Good Luck and Happy Bidding!!!

It’s All in the Comment at DealDash

Recently, I’ve noticed what I say in my Profile comment really has an impact on what I win.  I’ve said “something nice about myself” and I’ve said something like….well, like I might win. Frankly, the “I might win” has gotten me more wins.

It seems that it just doesn’t pay to simply “say something nice about yourself” I’ve done that over and over and I never really thought my words mattered very much, but my latest comment has reaped many rewards.

I can’t tell you what I said, but what I can tell you is that it is the vain that, I am a winner and I’m going to win this auction too.  It seems a positive comment gets the win.

I have seen many people comment about playing fair, and being kind, but these gentle comments don’t exactly pull in the wins.  I can’t be sure if the wins come from the stern comments, but it sure looks like it.

I’ve given so much thought to what I say in my comments, and over the years I’ve had some good ones and some not so good ones.  I never really thought the comment was winning the auctions because I was so sure that my playing was winning, but what I’ve learned is the comment has a lot to do with it.

You have to think about what you’re going to say. If you are mean, people will stomp you.  If you are weak, people will jump you.  You have to find a comment that will play into your style of bidding.

It’s really special if you can come up with a comment that doesn’t hurt anyone, and yet exemplifies the fact that you will win in spite of the fact you may be a “little guy”.

There are so many players who waste their comments by saying one of the “default” comments that DealDash has put up.  I’ve done it, I’ve done it for months at a time.  Then, I change my comment and win a bunch of auctions.

Think hard about what you want to say to your fellow players, let it be a little aggressive, don’t let it be mean or nasty.  Alway go with your best interest in mind.

Good Luck and Happy Bidding!!!

The Social Scene at DealDash

So you’ve visited the DealDash Penny Auction site, you have a username, you came up with a a classic comment and started bidding.  Now that you’re in love with entertainment shopping, you can share your enthusiasm with other players using social media, and for doing that DealDash will reward you with free bids!

The DealDash Facebook Page is a comprehensive, real-time site where you can enjoy seeing other players wins and fun commentary from the DealDash Community.  There is an outstanding staff at DealDash who lovingly care for their social media pages.  There you will find information about up coming sales and current events.

They think of everyone and comment on holidays and American celebrations.  You can see comments and reviews from other players and place comments yourself.  DealDash loves to hear about your wins! They also love to hear about your experiences.

There are a couple of ways to find DealDash on Facebook, they also have a “Reviews, Tips and Strategies Page &  DealDash Secrets Page, here you will learn about other players experiences, DealDash Sales, DealDash Representative Articles, Current Events, and any one’s experience from DealDash.

Once you “Like” the DealDash Facebook Page, DealDash will “Like” you too. Then you will see many of the DealDash postings, but they don’t bomb your FB site at all.  It’s all within an acceptable level of contact.  When you are connected to DealDash though Social Media and you have an active DealDash Account you become eligible for their Photo of the Week Contest which could show up on any of their social media formats.

DealDash also uses Pinterest and Twitter. But what you need to do to enter the contest is take a photo of you and your prize, keep it simple, a “bust” of yourself with the item by your smiling face.  Tip: That’s DealDash’s favorite photo for wins.

Then email the photo to [email protected], send it as an attachment and include a comment like, “I won this $225 PingPong Ball Table for $8.95 plus 100 bids, I saved 95% and it was shipped free! Thanks DealDash!’  That is a very boiled down comment.  Get creative, make your comment stand out, Deal Dash will notice.

The Pinterest and twitter are also a way to connect with other DealDash players, but there isn’t much action that goes on there.  I like to post my wins to my Pinterest page, but it’s just for me, not really connected to DealDash,  the truth is, I love DealDash and it has brought so many quality items to my home that I would never have gone out to buy, but since I won it, I love it!  Like, my Hot Tub, Metal Detector, , Mountain Bike, Racing Bike, countless Handmade Clocks, over a dozen appliances, and many handbags. That is just a sampling of what I win all the time at DealDash.

What you need to do is get your smiling face out there to DealDash, they want to show it off and give you 1000 bids for doing it.  Just for submitting the photo DealDash will give you up to 350 bids, then you are entered in the contest for Photo of the Week.

Good Luck and Happy Bidding!!!

Bidding on a Budget at DealDash

You might have noticed that DealDash has a new bid pack size for $7, this is the perfect size if you need to add a quick 50 bids to an item you have in auction.  You can also stick to a strict budget with this size.  I often wished I could just get a quick-50 bids, and now I can.

To have a successful bidding experience, it’s always convenient to have a large number of bids in your account at one time, but when you are bidding on a budget, stick to items that you can also afford to buy.   If you buy an item you’ve been bidding on DealDash will refund you the bids you used.  That’s called “Binning” or “BIN” both short for Buy It Now.  You never have to leave empty-handed at DealDash, so bid within your means and you won’t have to.

That means you really don’t want to bid on items you are just looking to exchange for bids, if you lose that auction, you will end your day with no items.  Look over the items for the next 24 hours, choose items you could use for a gift, if you have a $150 budget on that one person, you could essentially win an item in that price range with the 50 bids, so you got your item and you only spent $7 for a $150 gift, but if you didn’t win, you purchase the item and you get the 50 bids back.  Win-Win

But, if you can purchase an item at $500 buy the 2000 or 3000 bid pack and you will have plenty of bids to win so many single items, stay focused on that one item, that is so important when bidding on a budget.  If you start bidding in too many other auctions you will be out of bids before you know it, and when you purchase an item, you won’t get as many bids back.

Also, you are earning free bids the whole time you are bidding for your Time As High Bidder.  DealDash rewards every player with free bids everyday, this is something we earn by being the “highest bidder”.  Every time you place a bid there is about 9 seconds before Bid Buddy places the next players bid, this time is yours and it earns you time toward your next level.  Once there, you get the bids.  These free bids run into the thousands, just keep bidding, you’ll keep earning.

Another way to waste bids is by not using Bid Buddy.  If you stomp in your bids manually, you will get stomped back thereby canceling any free bids you could be earning with your Free Bid Meter.  Likewise, if someone is in the auction stomping on your bids, it doesn’t make sense to stay involved.  You need those free bids, and there is always another item right around the corner.

Try to conserve bids.  Bid on items you can afford to buy.  Protect your free bids, they are as good as  money in the bank, and try not to overbid, no one gets a bargain that way.  Tip: There is an exception to that rule;  If you reach the next level and just got a whole bunch of free bids, go ahead and use those to bid, you never know, and if the item is during a free sale or a 50% off sale, even better!

Good Luck and Happy Bidding!!!
