I went on this site to bid in a penny auction- what a ripoff they only have 2 -3 auctions going on at one time more of a competition than bidding, I don't see how anyone can win on this site they just take your $$$$- no win dont waste your $$$ on this site.

Penny auctions are a competitive game, not a discount shopping site. http://www.bestpennyauctions.net/strategy/how-penny-auctions-work/

Penny auctions are NOT a competitive game! If you want to play games, get on POGO or Gamesville or another game site. The whole concept of the penny auction sites are to claim items at a discount to get a bargain or deal. Powerbidders and others like yourself who think they are competitive games are ruining the real purpose for these sites. Fortunately, some sites are starting to clean out these types of bidders and banning them from using their sites. So...wonder who will be the "losers" in the end? Can't win em all!

Why would "Annibe" make the comment about penny auctions being a competitive game to someone who complained that Happy Bidday had too few auctions? It doesn't make sense. And I agree that it is not a competitive game -that would be Scrabble or Monopoly. Penny Auctions are GAMBLING!

I'm a regular on HappyBidDay and they have hundreds of auctions running at any one time. If my math is correct, that means hundreds of winners as well. I'd have to disagree with this one. I'm surprised CB accepted a complaint as poorly detailed as this one.

I'm on the site now and I see 222 live auctions (tried to upload pic but the upload tool doesn't work on this site). Maybe you are confusing them with someone else?

I got fooled into believing this site was different than other penny bid sites I had tried in the past. I even placed their banner on my own website www.LindseySellsbooks.com and promoted them. Until I had and opportunity to try them myself. Investing in most penny bids is a scam. You pay big bucks to make penny bids $80 for 165 penny bids isn't penny bidding its dollar bids. All I have to say about HappyBidDay is Liar, Liar Pants on fire.. I no longer promote them in fact my site tell it like it is if you're going to gamble and that is what a penny bid site is; just go to a casino and have fun you're odds of walking away with cash in you pocket are better at a casino than at HappyBidDay.

I will go one better on this 222 auctions and give a shot of the site... I have got some great bargains there but now they have let in Canadian bidders also so there is twice as many bidding and about the same auctions... I think someone was thinking of dealdash with so many auctions up and running.

I tried to copy and paste but could not as of Sept 20, 2013 4:15 P.M. Happy Bidday has 14 auctions running... Now that they have let Canadian Bidders in its very hard to win... That is double the bidders with same amount of auctions... I have won some wonderful bargains there but they are far and few between now... Also people are bidding items up that cost 36.00 to over 36.00 I seen a Bissel handheld steam cleaner go for over 40.00 and its 34.00 on Amazon not to mention how much these folks spent in bids... Things that make you go hmmmmmmmm and wonder if bidders are that dumb or if the sites using bots to drive up bids... I do not know but I have to admit its odd.

I paid hundreds and hundreds at HAPPYBIDDAY got nothing but a SADDAY and cheap item worth $1.99. Too many bidders very few CHEAP products. Aside from the bids you have to pay, you also have to pay shipping and processing fees. Really a Rip Offf - I don't know why there are still people in that site.
I went to another site there are lots and lots of item that you can bid on DEALDASH. I paid initial 20 bids and never pay for any bid no more but still winning until now because they have free bids everyday - you only have to log in and bid 1 presto you have Free Bids ...everyday you'll have free bid and you don't have to pay any processing or shipping.

I tried to ask for money refund on my unused bids which obviously I do not know a refund is not allowed ...someone replied to me with threat. I just do not want to continue bidding no more and I still have remaining bids and I thought maybe that remaining bids can be refunded to me since I do not want to use it no more because you will end up paying a lot on this site instead of saving a little.
