Yeah, you pay per bid. That person scored a GPS $1.79..... plus $179
(I understand that he may not have placed all the bids, but shut up)

beezid.com i saw a commercial the other day for this....it appears to be similar to e-bay however, prices can increase by a penny per bid or something..... the site showed someone today who scored a 3.5" tomtom gps for $1.76.... one catch is that you have to purchase bids before you can bid on something..... has anyone signed up at this site yet ? or bought anything ? |

I've heard of a similar site and it's basically a scam from what I recall. Basically you may buy an item for a ridiculously low price but the money you have to pay to make those bids makes up the difference bringing it close to or even over retail. To raise the bid 1 penny it costs you a dollar. http://lasersurplusparts.com/blog/?p=122 apply the old adage...if it sounds too good to be true... |

Yeah, it's crap. There's tons of reports from people who suspected they had bots driving bids up, and even if they did win something the 'auction' kept going. I'd stay away from it. |
