DealDash - Bid & Save Auctions Reviews

I like using deal dash once or twice a year to win some nice items and they do come with legit tags and are good
Quality however I have a few issues with how deal
Dash works. First of all the bids are extremely expensive you can spend $100 and get say 500 bids this is not a penny auction each bid costs you about 15 cents. A lot of the same players bid on almost every item and continue bidding aggressively into the tens of dollars or higher. You can burn through 500 bids in an hour just on one item because bids restart every ten seconds so some of these people are either rich or bots. Second issue is that if you don’t win you still lose all of that money so you spent potentially hundreds on literally nothing. Third issue is people should only get to bid on one item on a time having rich people blow thousands when some of us want a fair bidding system makes it impossible to win some of the nicer items.
My last issue is sometimes the items are sent damaged I bid for a long time and finally won a freshwater pearl necklace well it has two pearls and when I opened it one of the pearls had fallen off the necklace so it was either sent broken or broke during shipment. This makes me
Question the quality of the jewelry. My scarf is very nice though. I wish they would refund me my bids for this broken necklace I probably spent 100 dollars winning.

After seeing an ad, I played along and bought bids. Understanding how these gimmicks work, I used those bids to run some diagnostics to confirm what I already knew. The past winners are mostly the same “people” (bots). They seem to have unlimited money and could care less what they spend on buying a product because they only exist to save the product from being a loss. They site says they are “audited”, but you cannot view the audit results and have no way to legitimize them as an actual audit. Every once in a while they give a squirrel a nut to actual people to use them as their “keep the fires burning” proof of winners. If you don’t make a bid within the first $5.00 you are locked out. So expect the bots to bid early once to reserve the ability to run up the bidding later. If DealDash truly has the number of people using DealDash as it shows they do, the “winners” pool would be bigger. The winners that are always winning are spending money per bid with many bids, plus winning the bids. They would have to be extremely wealthy and stupid with their money. That’s not a likely combination. I spent money to investigate before investing in this gimmick. After all, being SMART with your money makes you achieve wealth. Save yourself and play a game, you won’t come out ahead.

Sketchy business practices IMO. For one thing, the buy it now price is heavily inflated. After never hearing of any of these “luxury brands”, I looked into it and realized that like 80% of the stuff they auction is made by “companies” owned by this app. Many of the in-house brands like Bolvaint and Kamikoto are cheaply made, not worth thousands of dollars. Did you really believe that you’d be getting “90% off retail prices!!”? If you look at the people who are bidding/winning most auctions, it’s retirees who can afford to place hundreds of bids, and who gullibly think they’re getting a deal on high quality products. Kamikoto knives are made in China and are a scam based in Hong Kong, along with their other “foreign-sounding” brands. After buying your first bid pack, you easily win any of the first couple (lower-priced) auctions you bid in, because you end up being the only bidder. After asking a few friends to test it out, yep it turns out the same thing happens to them. I think this is one of their strategies to convince new users that their auctions are easy to win, and to encourage them to spend more. In reality, the same people can bid on and win the same items over and over again (just look at the reviews for the products)

Just look at the names of the people your bidding against, I can guarantee that they are the same people you will see bidding on every auction and you will never win!!!! You can see that they have won the same items over and over!!! Unless you have an endless amount of money to buy bids and go up against these people who are on here 24 / 7 you won’t ever win. I tried to win a mattress 14 times and amazingly the same person won it 7 times, so don’t think your going to get something of value, you’ll wind up spending a lot of money and get absolutely nothing for it!!! Give it a try and see what happens, but just look at the names of the bidders and when you lose and try again to win it the same people that won will be beating you every time. There a 6 people that always win, just watch and see.

I've been on this app since 2013 and in the beginning I got addicted to it. I lost thousands of dollars on it and now I have nothing that I can say it was worth winning. The only things that are worth on this site are Apple products and TVs but they will never let you win those. Every time they auction one of those they also have a computer bot that you will bid against thus there is no way for you to win. Trust me I have ended up buying few apple laptops and iPads for the full price to get my bids back because I spent thousands of bids and hundreds of dollars trying to win it and couldn’t. It would cost me way less if I went to Apple store and just bought those. The only things they let me win are suitcases and other worthless stuff that are way overpriced on their site but in reality they are very cheap and poor quality. None of the suitcases survived one trip to Europe. They are made of cheap plastic. The other things I won are backpacks , pillows and candles. All those stuff are overpriced and not worth spending money on. Just stay away from this site.

DealDash is good but when you select to use PayPal as payment it doesn’t allow me to select which card or credit line I want to use through my PayPal. And it used as payment the wrong card on my file through PayPal! It should have a set done by time like eBay has which ends the auction at a set time rather than go on for days resetting the timer . It also shouldn’t charge you for bids it really should be a daily allowance of bids but think every time you pay for bid packs and bid and the loser bids all bid on the same item you are technically paying for shipping and they still technically get retail price due to the winning bid and loser bids combined. To the same ones who win every auction item they much have a very high credit limit and more than one card or must be rich and don’t care. I’ve won one auction for a bardenshire water fountain valued at $208 and paid $3.46 for it plus my other bids towards it and there were lots of loser bids on my item.

I cannot speak more highly of their customer service. VERY fair if you have any concerns about your account or products. My issue w DealDash is the overbidding by some people (who must have time and money at their disposal). It’s frustrating for someone like me, just trying to get a deal. I have won only 4 times. I’m also very cautious in using my bids for stuff I actually want or need. The other issue I have, it seems they have the same stuff- very little change in products offered. They are nice but not as much variety as I would want. For the last 2 months at least it’s been status quo for items being auctioned. It’s ok if you lost the first time because you get more opportunities to try again but still. Overall, my advice, buy bids to bid on stuff you actually want/ need. Careful not to just buy bids to bid otherwise you’ll be spending more than you are getting in your deal!

This is not worth it. I tried it out on an auction for a PS4 and headphones. $160 later, I lost the auction and my money. For another $60 I could have bought one from Walmart. Problem is you get wrapped up in trying to win. You don’t think about how much you spent. Value of items are grossly over stated. Headphones stated to be worth $500. Can buy on eBay for $150 brand new. PS4 valued at $390. Can buy at Walmart for $220. These auctions cost every bidder money whether you win or lose. So beware! This adventure cost me $160 and 27hrs of irritation. The auction lasted for 27hrs and people that didn’t bid before the $5 cutoff were jumping in near the end. Which wasn’t supposed to be aloud. Each bid increases the amount by 1 cent. Each bid cost $.13-$.15 a piece. You get some free bids along the way, but not enough to make it worth it. Don’t let them fool you with auctions that ended at a couple bucks for stuff worth $100’s of dollars. This is a gimmick to get you to bid. You are guaranteed to lose. If you don’t believe me. Enjoy finding out for yourself.

I love the deal dash app. One thing I love is the convenience of clicking on the icon and not having to go the webpage route. Was so glad when they got DealDash up and running. I can't think of any improvements to DealDash except I would like a section that kept track of how much of your actual money you have into it via buying bids and merchandise. I also love the new system of getting daily free bids posted to your account when you log in and spend one bid each day. What I don't like - and this is a totally personal problem - is the obsession that overtakes me when bidding on an auction. This is something I have to work on myself though and has nothing to do with deal dash or DealDash . Reason for 4 stars? I don't give 5 stars unless it is absolutely perfect.

You will not win cause the timer reset it self to give room for others to bid too so ever bid is ? Cent. And if you go all crazy the cent amount adds up to the the price of what you are trying to get and then you pay for the product what you are bidding for what an awesome trap for people to think that they have a good price it’s best if we go out and buy it out right at other venders I came on to see if it best to bid I can’t seem to think this is a fun way to get lower price things I have 510 bid credit so far I have used 100 of them once my credits are done no more bidding for me but it will say I just lost the money that I put into it and received nothing it like taking a gamble you win some and you don’t win at all I hate gambling it’s not a guarantee you win it what a thing to trick people I was like yes I might get something for being new a lot of things was locked to me I could not bid on it ?

DealDash is one of the craziest legal cons of all time. Not only are the bids about 25 cents EACH, but the likelihood of that paying off are small to none. I’ve noticed that there are a handful of people who always seem to come in at the last moment and throw their money around. You nod on something 150 times and it rarely pays off so then you are out all of this money because you used up your bids.
They always have auctions to buy bids, but you’ll probably use at least 200 bids to win a 220 bid auction and then you have to pay for it on top of that!!!! Such a SCAM!!!
Bids should be free or like one cent each. They just had a sale for 14 cent bids and that was supposed to be a “deal”
I can only assume that the hardcore deal dashers are gambling addicts trying to get their fix during covid. That’s my theory.
I can’t believe this is legal and I can’t believe I was stupid enough to buy into it. Save yourself frustration and money. Get your fix elsewhere.

I won on Deal Dash a fine leather travel bag from Bolvaint Paris, which they valued at $3,400. Once the bag arrived, I saw a tag inside that said it was made in China. The fabric inside is poorly stitched. The leather looks cheap. It’s definitely not worth $3,400. I asked customer support how can I leave a review on their site regarding the bag. They said they ask certain customers for their reviews to post on the site to ensure diversity. That doesn’t seem right.

I’m not sure if there are company owned bots playing the auction. I don’t see anything in their terms and conditions that would prohibit that. It seems that several of the same usernames win frequently and big endlessly. They had an iPhone X, that went to the last bidder for $7,633. That seems absurd.

Most of the items they auction off are from companies I have never heard of before. Looking up those companies on the internet is pretty interesting in itself. Go ahead and try it. See if you can figure out if the brand has a physical store. Perhaps they are just rebranded cheap items from China “advertised” on a made up site.

Wish I could get a full refund for all the bids I bought. But, you only get a refund on the first purchase you made, which is usually low to test the site out. They will refund the remaining balance after devaluing your bids to about 20% of what you paid.

Each bid lasts max of 10 seconds? Make a bid on an item. Close DealDash and set a timer of 10 minutes. 10 minutes x 60 sec/min= a minimum of 6.00$ added right? Never! I tested this on 10 different bid items. In 10 minutes the bid will not grow by more than 2.00$... companies that put their products up for auction control the time and have fake accounts so that they can drive the price up. Ultimately they win and you and all the other suckers pay 2-20$ for nothing and they keep their over priced product. Would you seriously pay 200$ for a set of sheets? Have you heard of these companies prior to this? They make their own websites to build the facade that you are getting a great deal. The only product reviews are written by the people selling the product. Ultimate hustle. Don’t fall for it

Sad to say Deal Dash is a scam. Don’t let the $5 no jumper limit lull you into a false sense of security, because all people have to do is bid once before the $5 limit is reached, and they can come back at anytime, even after $5 and resume bidding. This means, you’ve wasted a bunch of bids (which you pay for, so you’ve wasted your money). It’s also amazing that these bidders know exactly when you’re about to “win”, or more honestly buy, and pop up to drag out the bidding, raising the price you’re going to pay, or cost you all of your bids (and money) you’ve wasted before finally giving up. I suspect these opponents are actually bots. Deal Dash my not deploy this strategy on every item, especially the cheap garbage like overpriced costume jewelry, but they definitely do on the premium items.
You got me DD, but you will not get another nickel out of me. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.

The players (not bots) that have “wasted thousands of dollars” on this game are not only retarded to spend so much on a game like this, but are supporting the company’s egos. I’m still extremely skeptical of DealDash, but the players are just acting stupid. I haven’t even played yet(not a single cent used on this game), and I can tell that this game is one that I could feel sorry for. I will have to bid some money to see if it’s actually a scam, and even then it will simply get 3 stars due to the retarded users.

Initially I thought I just lost $35 to the buds I bought, but I actually won a few things. The $10 gift cards became easier and easier and they add up, yay for me! If you continue to place a bid everyday, 30 bids free boom...that adds up and that’s where you start to get your money back, at least I did. My free bids added up and I was able to get into auctions early (just one or two bids) and then go back into them an hour or so later and see how many people were still left, then make the decision if I wanted in again. Got good towels and knives, a watch and headphones...all good quality. Took a bit, but I found the worth in Deal Dash$

DealDash and company are scamming consumers in every way possible!
1. They inflate the price of everything...even gift cards. They add a 20 or 50 bid package, which they value at nearly a dollar a bid.
2. They either own or deal with the companies that they sell 60% of their merchandise from, so that they can over-inflate the value. Items are chintzy unless brand name.
3. Look at the total cost that some “bidders” are paying for the items. A $25 gift card to IHOP was bid to $32...and that is on top of the cost to “bid.” They have bots or paid people who bid the items up extremely high. The $20k car was won by someone whose total cost to win it was $116k. Seriously? Someone fed $100,000 into an app for a *chance to by a car at a discount? Think about it!
They are willing their own things so they have no cost associated with their business. Stealing money from people.
4. This “game” would be extremely dangerous for anyone who has a propensity to gamble. That’s what it is. Gambling. They let you win a few “auctions” at the start to make you think it’s legitimate, but it absolutely isn’t.

RUN, don’t walk, away from this site! Research it online if you don’t believe me. Based in Finland with the only goal of taking our money.

Honestly, I thought it would be like you be able to get items at a fraction of their price; but instead you still find yourself almost having to pay full price nonetheless. Some items actually go past the retail price too. You can put up to like 400+ bids on only one item to try win it and still you won’t win it. And if you really want to calculated, the amount that you pay to get bids plus the grand total that you pay for your won item is basically the same as if you’re buying it at the store. Difference is if you buy it at the store you can take it home immediately instead of having to wait nearly 2 weeks for it to come in.

If you like auctions you should like this but you pay for each bid. Have seen some great deals and have seen people way over pay. The whole concept of earning points based on time needs to be rethought. Too often mean or greedy people stomp your time. System would be more fair and less frustrating if points were earned based on bids placed not time. It would also speed up some of these auctions that take days to end. They need a wider variety of item. The buy it now price is ridiculously high in many cases. Result - mixed feelings so far. It's good but needs to be improved.

I’m just going to get right to it... I honestly love Deal Dash and DealDash is great too. It’s never crashed, never messed up in any way for me and it works just like the website. The opportunities to get some really high-quality items for a fraction of their retail prices is immense and DealDash makes it possible to do it on the go. I have bud on, and win, some amazing products. Products I honestly would not have been able to get myself otherwise. In fact, I won an Ultra HD 4K 55” TV for my son’s wedding for an unbelievably low price. That’s just one of the items. Do yourself a favor and check it out.

I have won some really cool merchandise on Deal Dash. The Wilson & Miller products are my favorite - I’m impressed with the quality and even the packaging. (Please bring back the flashlights!)
I also have to brag on the customer service department. The response rate is fast, & they tend to go above & beyond to make sure you have a good experience with DealDash .
Give the game a try - you’ll have to invest some money, but nothing in life is free. Be patient. Watch the game for a while and you’ll know which opponents to avoid, because some really will bid forever.... Use bid buddy and don’t “stomp” on bids. Start with something small like a ring, and you’ll eventually win if you stay with it. I’ve tried jumping around to different auctions, but I have had the most luck when I picked one auction and stayed in for a reasonable amount of time.
Good luck! And do not hesitate to reach out to customer service if you have a question! I promise I do not work for this app - they have just been very helpful and exceeded my expectations, which prompted me to give them 5 stars after almost a year and a half of playing.

In a dog eat dog world, the house always wins. I was very reasonable and now became one of the mad dogs. Reasonable purchase and bidding has to rely on Lady Luck, which is then a LOTTERY. Not many people purchase or play Lottery, which is just a dollar in most of the state run programs. Calculated bidding is never possible without Lady Luck again as suggested in your website tips. The numbers of seconds for calculations are not sufficient for a normal. Definitely my IQ is way higher than many bidders on this app. One must be an autistic person counting cards or by a look solve the puzzle. Even such a capable person cannot predict the madness that is going on. I learned my lessons in a hard way spending over Eight Thousands dollars since I fell attracted to this craziness. I don’t know what is the company doing with 90% of the products are crap, especially, Ashlynn Avenue jewelry. Now-a-days good products like Monolith, Robert Matthew, New Haven, are being rare instead crap jewelry is everywhere, every time. DD is no more claiming one auction every minute. Bid Packs frequency has decreased significantly and bidders craze has increased with new bidders every day. Seasoned bidders are getting the heat. Bottom line, the house always wins. This is my thought. Many good things discussed thus far but none has been found in your implementation. My I’d is ‘nbharath’.

Update: I have now won over 125 auctions. Have had some recent problems with notifications of upcoming auctions with DealDash . Tech services is working on correcting & does not appear to affect the web browser version of their software. Learning knew strategies for bargains all the time.

Can get some bargains if you study and know what your doing. The problem is you can get caught up and overpay if your not disciplined. It would be nice if app had a place to view your won auctions rather than having to look through all purchases (including bids). Still you can get some bargains if you study all the nuances. I've won 50 plus auctions to date.
