I've been seeing a lot of commercials for this, but it seems like one of those too good to be true things. Apparently I just won a $25 American Express gift card for only 40 cents. Before I give them my debit card info, I just wanted to know if this is the real deal or what. I was hoping maybe someone here knows more about it than I do, or if they have actually signed up themselves and have won anything yet.
The only catch I see so far is that you have to buy bids. I'm not sure exactly what that means, but it seems as though it's kind of like a credits thing and that in order to bid, you have to buy bids. Any kind of info would be great, thanks.

I have never heard of it before buy hey were from different countries lol. But it does sound like a scam but then if it has TV adverts I dont know what to say really.
If you were to pay them couldn't you use pay pal?

You have to buy bid packs, which is how they make their money. Once you bid on something, you don't get that bid back.

Sounds like another site. Its legit, because, as said above, they make money off the bids, so even if you don't win, you still have to pay them a certain amount, which is how they can sell stuff for so cheap, because they get revenue from every single bidder.

It's legit, they've been shilling it on Mike and Mike on ESPN for months now. But as already stated, they make all their money from selling bids.

So you guys think it's safe for me to give my cc info and stuff to complete the bid? I'm probably just gonna use my $10 of free bids, and then cancel my account, lol.

I wouldn't put my cc info simply because I'm extra cautious but it seems safe enough. Perhaps a PayPal account or something?

Well I order stuff online all the time with my cc, but maybe it would be wise to finally open up a paypal account.
