Tips to Smarter Bidding on DealDash

DealDash Tips

Do you love bidding on DealDash? Here are some tips for smarter bidding. Read on and see if you learn anything interesting.

If you’re a regular bidder on DealDash, you’re probably familiar with all of the things that I am writing, however, there’s no harm in brushing up on the basics. Everyone needs to reinvent themselves at some point, why not start today by switching up your bidding style?

Bidding Styles

Whether conservative or free-flowing, bids are what makes DealDash go ’round. If you’re normally someone who hangs onto every bid with a tight grasp and misses some great winning opportunities because of it – loosen up that grip on your bids! On the other hand, if you’re the sort of bidder who just throws your bids around like they’re nothing, then maybe it’s time to tighten up your grip a bit. It’s all about switching up your style and confusing your opponents and fellow bidders.

Take a Bidding Break Occasionally

Have you ever been bidding in an auction and it just never seems to end? You’re going head-to-head with another bidder, and then another person jumps in, and another, and another? Then, before you know it, you’re back in an auction with ten people? Take a break! If your auction now has ten bidders, then there’s an extremely good chance that you can stop bidding for a half hour or so and go take a little break. Go have a snack, have a drink, go outside and sit in the fresh air for a few moments. Little breaks like this can help you stay focused and with your eye on the prize. If you have invested WAY too many bids to do this without feeling nervous, then turn on your BidBuddy.

Your BidBuddy will bid tirelessly for you with as many bids as you load up. The BidBuddy will bid with these bids until they are gone, taking turns with any other BidBuddies that are set up on the auction. The BidBuddy is always a smart choice when you feel like you need a break and a breath of fresh air.

DealDash Tips to Bid Friendly

DealDash Tips Bid Friendly

DealDash is a friendly place. You don’t need to be the other bidder’s best friend – but it is important that you bid friendly.

Bidding friendly can mean different things to different people, but we’ll just stick with the basics here. Everyone on DealDash is encouraged to be polite and be friendly with the other bidders because we are all one big community. Yes, that community is HUGE, but it’s still a community, and you will run across other bidders frequently, especially if you typically stick to the same bidding categories. Here are some tips for bidding friendly on DealDash.

Start Off Nicely

You’ll want to put your best (polite) foot forward when bidding on DealDash. So be sure that when you register that you pick a friendly or neutral name to be your bidding “handle”. Don’t pick something mean, frightening, or intimidating. This is also the case with your bidder’s bio and your avatar picture. Make sure that all of these things are nice, polite, or neutral. This is a family website, and I know from experience that kids often peer over the grown-up’s shoulders when they are bidding. Please don’t put up any frightening or scary pictures or bidder’s bios. It’s just not nice!

Don’t Be a “Stomper” or a “Jumper”

“Stompers” and “Jumpers” are considered very rude, and definitely not nice. Who in the world are Stompers and Jumpers? When the Stomper bids in an auction, they bid immediately after a person. This is rather rude, most people wait until there are about 2 seconds or so to go – and so does the BidBuddy. The reason that this is considered rude is because this cheats the other people out of their “clock time.”  The Jumper is a bidder who waits until the auction has just about reached the $5 No Jumper limit and places their first bid – it’s especially rude if there are only 2 or 3 people left in the auction. This is rude because the people who have been bidding in the auction all along have used up lots of

The Jumper is a bidder who waits until the auction has just about reached the $5 No Jumper limit and places their first bid – it’s especially rude if there are only 2 or 3 people left in the auction. This is rude because the people who have been bidding in the auction all along have used up lots of bids, and feel that one of them should be the winner instead of someone new who has nothing invested in winning the auction.

Try Not to Get into Stomping Wars

Getting into a stomping war is kind of like being a Stomper times ten. A stomping war is when two people are bidding against each other, and one of them decides that they want the auction to hurry up and finish. They then proceed to stomp on their opponent over and over again. This will work out for them if their opponent is using a BidBuddy and not paying attention, however,  many people who use the BidBuddy (me included!) watch the auctions anyway to monitor how quickly my bids are being used up. If your opponent is watching when you start stomping all over their BidBuddy, well, you’re about to have a stomping war on your hands. Try to avoid this, it really isn’t nice.

DealDash Picture-Taking Tips

Canon Black PowerShot SX60 HS Digital Camera with 16.1 Megapixels and 65x Optical Zoom

 

Do you take pictures of your DealDash wins? You should, you can win 1,000 bids from DealDash in the weekly Facebook contest.

Every week DealDash has a Facebook photo contest to win 1,000 bids. Isn’t that cool? DealDash loves their customers and wants to give them the equivalent of $150 in free bids! If you take great pictures, then you’re more likely to win – it IS a photo contest, after all.

Close-Ups Are Great

If you have won an item that’s on the smaller side, then maybe a close-up is the way to go. For example, if you win a ring, then put it on your finger and hold up your hand to your face. Then get a close-up with your camera. Or if you have won a necklace, then put that beautiful thing on! Then take a close-up of yourself with your necklace.

Take Your Pics Outdoors

Having natural and bright light for your photos will make your pictures even better than you imagined. The bright Spring and Summer sun will highlight your DealDash win better than any indoor lighting – unless you own a photography studio, of course. The sun is your friend when it comes to taking the best photos around. Good photos = Facebook contest wins!

Make Sure You’re in it!

Part of the fun of the DealDash photo contest is to showcase the bidder as well as the win. So make sure that you’re in the photo with your win. I know, I know, some people are camera shy, but if you want to win the contest then you’re going to need to put aside your bashfulness and get into that photo.

Post it on Facebook

After you have taken your photo of yourself with your win navigate to the DealDash Facebook page which is here, and “Like” it. Then you can post your picture to get free bids. Here are the instructions from DealDash detailing the instructions how to get free bids from Facebook:

1. Select an item you have won on DealDash to feature in the photo.

2. Take a high-quality photo clearly showing yourself and the item you won.

3. Send your best-looking photo to [email protected] and add a description which should include the following information: the item name, retail price, how much you paid for the item and a personal comment about the win as well. For example: “I got this $879 flatware set on@DealDash. I paid just $9.02 and used 109 bids! Thanks DealDash, they look nice in my kitchen”

4. In the end of the caption, please include the following sentence and the link (See the picture below):
