  I watched a news report on NBC's Today Show talking about how good these penny auctions were so i went out to see what it was about. I had to give all my credit card imformation to be able to check it out. Before i new it they were giving me 300 bidswipes for $150.. I didn't even realize i was actually purchasing them so i went and ask one of thier online rep's if i could get my money back since i didn't realize what i was doing and she told me no. Since i couldn't do anything i thought i'd try and see if i could purchase anything to make it worth my time and money. I won a few auctions buying bidswipes bud couldn't even come close to purchasing anything other than something worthless. As i was bidding i noticed other supposed buyers bidding on everything all the time whether it was day or night and you can find them on there 24 hours a day such as (BidMan).

He's buying anything and everything such as bidswipes packages which 90 percent of the auctions are for. He's spending thousands upon thousands just for these packages and every day. If i were to buy them like that ,i would have to be spending millions upon millions of dollars and getting very little for them. I was a live auctioneer for a few years and if there was a ringer in the croud i'd know it and these auctions have to be loaded with them. I would of been happy if i could of purchased anything substantual and took a beating for my mistake of getting into this but NBC (ABC & CBS) made this business look legitimat. I would of thought NBC along with a cou[ple of other networks would of done some research before giving these folks all that free advertisement. Closeouts, warehouses,overstock and police confiscated items is what they said they were auctioning off but within the few weeks i've checked this out the same ol overpriced suggested manufacturers retail items are always there.  They are conartists and the media has padded on the back for it.
