anyone heard of it, or used it?

never heard of it but from looking at it you could get some potentially good deals. But paying $1 per bid, win or lose sounds a little shitty.

yeah.

i saw it in an ad on my gmail.

it looks really iffy.

what you don't pay in the price for the item, you pay in the price for the bids.

its got potential... but i clicked on a canon camera and their was only 15 seconds left... everytime it went down to 2 seconds someone would bid $.01 and the countdown clock would add 10 seconds per bid - so its a little bit of a scam, they're just squeezing out every dollar per bid they can. i wrote this, checked back on the camera and its still going on...

I'm watching one for $80 cash. Literally an auction for cash. It's up to $27 and change. You know some idiot out there is going to brag about getting it for $50, but not realize he bid on it 50 times.

*edit* $27.45 and the winner bid twice. $29.45 to win $80? That's a pretty good deal there!

Its the same thing as bidz.com. Alot jewelers use that site to get stuff cheap then resell them at higher cost. I hate the biding technique tho because when u think you won someone bids and the shit starts over again.
