User Reviews
New here. Hope this works!
Charged my account without my permission.
You pay to bid and you wave your money goodbye because it’s gone. You might win an inexpensive low cost item at first but you’ll pay to bid and then pay for the item. It’s best not to download this app at all.
Charges +/- $0.13 to $0.14 cent per point, and charges bidders one point for each bid, which raises the bid price by only $0.01. At the end of each bid, they have collected all the points from losing and winning bidders, then the winning bidder pays the final price to get the item. For example, an item that I bid on with points, ended up costing me $45, along with multiple bidders who were in the bid nearly as long me (which was somewhere between 3 and 6) including the winner. The final bid price was $25.44. So, they ended up collecting +/- $200 to $320 for a pair of shoes that retails for $110 to $140. The winning bidder ended up paying probably about $80 for the shoes. It may be a good deal, if you win, but you’ll be paying anyway, whether you win or lose…
I’m embarrassed I fell for this. I thought this was a legit auction app. After paying $30 to join, (should have been my first red flag), i started browsing the categories and it was a lot of cheap made in china bs. No doubt there are deals on here but doing an e-auction for a $15 air infuser where you can bid 1¢ at a time seems gimmicky. I’d pass on this app. Just wish i could get my $30 back…
The app is full of bots who outbid you. You have to buy points to be able to bid and the items they sell are bad quality.
You pay for the right to bid with points, then pay for what you may or may not win. Just a scam!
Don’t waste your time with this one. Even if you do find something worth bidding on they have bots placing bids against you to drive up prices.
Stay away from this app if I could give it less then a star I would you spend money to buy points and then lose only to spend more money on what you or they trick you in to a deal avoid this app stay away
They charged my card $30 unannounced to me. Avoid this app. Would give a zero star review if I could.
