Belt Auction

whats your opinion on bidding sites that charge for the bid?

i cant remember the names of any off the top of my head right now, (maybe ezbid or something like that) the ones that charge you for the bids you make. like i saw one yesterday that said you pay the money you bid with (say 10 bucks) but if you don't win the auction, it goes toward a buy now price (so if the camera is 100, now you only have to pay 90) whats your opinion on it? to me sounds like a rip off. any success stories???

1. Ok the deal with those websites is you have to be smart, and don't use lots of bids, if a camera is $100.00 (Retail) and you buy $10.00 worth of bids, don't use all $10.00 worth of bids when the camera is at $1.00 because you WILL be outbid. Wait till the camera is around $60.00 to start bidding, so you are less likely to be outbid. I have seen people that bid for those "50 bids" awards and have been out bid 60 times, like why would you bid 60 times for 50 bids? Just play it smart! you get really good deals! If you play it smart I have seen people who bid one time and get an ipad for $100, so thats $1.00 fro bids and $100.00 for the ipad so $101.00 spent, don't be an idiot that bids $300.00 worth of bids to get a product worth about $300.00
