New Items of Luxury from DealDash

You can always find something for your home at DealDash, they variety of merchandise is amazing, and lately they’ve added another essential everyday item to the line-up, it’s towels! Luxurious, fluffy and affordable bath towels. There is a nice variety of colors to choose fro, suitable for any home: Charcoal, Ivory, Deep Blue, Moss Green. I’ve seen this $99 Charcoal Towel set sell for an average of $15. There is always one or another offer for the towels that you can bid on. They are popular, yet some are selling around a dollar!

You can also find other linens and bed spreads at DealDash. They have been around for awhile, so a lot of the regular players have all the sheets and blankets they need. I have a few of each color! The bed spread makes a lovely gift, and it’s so soft and easy to clean. I usually keep a couple in the closet for gifts, you never know when a bridal shower might pop up, and everyone needs a big fluffy comforter!

DealDash also has sheets in three sizes: Full, Queen and King. They are also very soft and yet sturdy. They dry in minutes and have kept their shape. I like to win the items for the linen closet because they are good gifts, but also because they are easy to win, and once in a while I like to trade one in for bids. This is a bid exchange program offered by DealDash, they will give you a set number of bids if you decide you don’t want an item once you’ve won it. It’s very convenient. I keep a list of my open wins on my dashboard, if I don’t have enough bids for one items I can always exchange for bids win one of my wins.

You do have to be willing to have nothing in the end if you do that because there are no guarantee you will win anything with the bids and now you don’t have your win either, so be very sure this is what you want when you exchange. I’ve only regretted it once, but I still think about that one mistake. What if. Just be sure you don’t want an item before you exchange.

The sheet and comforters are generally easy to win, if you get into a battle and the other player won’t let go, do yourself a favor and be the one to let go, go for the next one. There is always something nice for your linen closet to bid on at DealDash. There is also a fair retail price for all this linens, so if you do get going and won’t let go until you spend the products value in bids, you can then purchase the item, and if you Buy It Now (BIN) you will get all the bids back which you used trying. That’s a Win-Win!

Good Luck and Happy Bidding!!!

DealDash and Facebook

DealDash is so much fun, you’ll want to add the Facebook element to your experience. You already know Facebook is a fun place to talk to friends, find out what’s going on in the world or just look at pictures of cute kittens, so when you add DealDash to the picture, it’s more fun because you can earn free bids, and here is how.

DealDash has a wonderful Facebook page where you can share your experiences with other players, make comments about your wins, and share or read reviews. There is anyone from the “Newbie” to the “Seasoned Pro” visiting the Facebook page. I like to go there at least once a day, this way I catch up on the latest sales posted and …..well, see cute pictures of kittens! DealDash does that too.

Each week DealDash has a contest for 1000 bids to see who takes the best photo of themselves for their Facebook page and other Social Media. All you have to do is take a photo of yourself or a friend holding your win, and send the picture to [email protected] via an attachment. Be sure to include a comment about the value of the items and what you paid for it.

Also include, a brief comment about you’re experience. If you’re creative, DealDash notices! You will receive 350 bids for items valued over $199 just for posting and a handful of bids for the lower valued prizes. There are complete instructions on the DealDash Facebook Page. There you can find any information about DealDash, you just have to poke around.

I’ve found some of my best tips on the Facebook Page, especially the value of items, sometimes you just don’t realize what fantastic prizes they have at DealDash until you read about them on the Facebook page. They do a nice job of bringing to the platform some of the most creative and ingenious gifts I’ve ever seen.

I’m sure you will love visiting the DealDash Facebook Page, don’t miss out on the fun, don’t miss out on getting a few tips and certainly don’t miss seeing all the smiles from the hundreds of people who win everyday at DealDash!

Good Luck and Happy Bidding!!!

DealDash Has the Best Gifts

When you are making a list of gifts you’ll need for the holidays, always check DealDash first! They have the best selection of gift items and you can fulfill your list in reverse! Go to DealDash, find some items you would like to win and win it. Then look at your list and assign it to someone! It’s great, I don’t stress at all over what gift to give anyone, the right gift will show up.

One of the best and easy-to-win gift items at DealDash is my all time favorite the White Comforter and Sheet Sets, everyone needs blankets and sheets and they are relatively easy to win at the DealDash site, and they always have a nice selection of sizes and with the sheets, a nice variety of colors too.

Another “kind of” easy to win item are the huge selection of watches, you have to keep your eye open for your favorites, some watches are very popular items and are only out there occasionally, and there are other watches that are on the site all the time. This is where the Entertainment Shopping comes into play. You search the site for your desired item, bid on a few things along the way, and then when you find your item, if it’s not on the market yet, you can bookmark it. DealDash will then send you a notification when the auction is about to start. If it’s scheduled and you bookmark it, it will be posted at the top of your DealDash Main Page.

There are some great housewares that make wonderful gifts, like stand mixers and blenders. I love the small appliance category, DealDash rotates the items in the category, you might see a blue stand mixer today and a red one tomorrow. Small appliances are generally very popular, but I’ve often seen fewer players as other times, so you could win them easier when the odds are better.

There is a handsome selection of Handmade Clocks with familiar shapes men love, like cars, planes and trains. The clocks are popular, but I see them go for pennies all the time. You could get real lucky, it helps to know the pool of players, but there are new players to DealDash everyday, so you will never totally know the field of players. That’s part of the fun though, it keeps you on your toes. Some players are very predictable too, that also helps, I’ve seen a lot in my two plus years, and predictable players are fun to volley with.

These are only a few of the thousands of items they carry at DealDash that would make wonderful gifts. Keep shopping and bid on, DealDash has the gifts you need.

Good Luck and Happy Bidding!!!

Jumpers and Stompers at DealDash

So, you’ve been bidding at DealDash for awhile and you’ve noticed two different bidding styles that may annoy you somewhat, Jumping and Stomping. What I can tell you is, even though it may not be nice, it’s not illegal. There are a dozen or so players at DealDash who jump and more that stomp, but they can be beat!

First let’s define these acts, Jumping is pretty common, especially on the higher retail items. As you may have noticed DealDash has a “No Jumper” limit of $5, this means that no new players can join the auction after the $5 mark. A jumper will place one to a dozen bids very early in the auction and then disappear for the next 1000 bids or so. Now the auction is at $10.00 and they come back and try to out bid you because you’ve used 300 bids or more and now they feel you’ve exhausted your quota for the item, so they’ve come in to steal the item. This back fires so often it’s hilarious when a “jumper” gets his just rewards (losing) for jumping.

The first thing that goes wrong for the jumper is the auction ends under $5, this happens more than not, but the average jumper will continue to take that chance. I’ve jumped the jumper, that’s how I handle it. By jumping the jumper, I too, run the risk of losing because I dropped out. This activity is common among the seasoned pro or when price doesn’t matter and sometimes both. Some players just have buckets of money, you have to outsmart them, and believe me, they make mistakes, I’ve beaten them all and you will too. The other problem for the jumper is they actually don’t have very many bids so they wait and wait and hope no one wins. Then they come back and use only 50-100 bids, not the 1000 like others do. They can be beat as well.

The Stomper is another breed of player, usually a new player who doesn’t understand the value of the Bid Buddy. Your Bid Buddy is the best way to win an auction, it’s an automatic bidding system provided by DealDash. When you stomp, you generally don’t plan when the bids are being placed, many will bid after every single other bid, this uses bids up exponentially and doesn’t win more auctions. Often, the problems the stomper will encounter is other players who will stomp them back. I don’t like to waste bids doing it, but others will just to “teach them a lesson”. Hey, it is a competition, and as I said, it’s not illegal. It’s just not nice.

The Stomper is easily beat, they usually run out of bids very early in an auction, they use them up so quickly that when their bids are gone….they are gone. Stomping is not a sustainable system of bidding and most people will finally give in to use the Bid Buddy. There are however, several players who have been around for a long time who stomp. Their strategy is to frighten players away from the auction, because if they stomp, you may lose the free bids DealDash gives you for your Time As High Bidder (TAHB). Your TAHB is time rewarded in the form of free buds by DealDash for bidding. For every second you are the highest bidder of the auction, you earn free bids, these bids are given when you reach your next level.

So, now you know about Jumpers and Stompers, not illegal, but not nice. In turn, I hope I’ve encouraged you to use your Bid Buddy, it’s really the best way to win auctions and earn free bids.

Good Luck and Happy Bidding!!!
