This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

Several of the auctions are fake. They get you to bid on the bigger items and just when the auction is suppose to end, the site will refresh and shows the auction of that item having re-started and you will have lost all your bidding credits. Also the $150 intial investment is kind of steep in my opinion. There is really no way to win the bigger auctions. When you try to track down any of the winners on any of the lists for the big ticket items, the people don't exist. The tracking numbers they provide are fictious for the big winners. Stay well away from this site!

Yup, I figured it out when I watched bids and the price was no where close to what they were advertising! Crooks. The Company that took our fees are from Germany so they are modern day crooks! Too bad so sad.

I too was scammed by these fools. I thought I was paying for a couple of $$ items & when I thought it seemed too good to be true I went to chat & asked the person there If I had been charged anything & wanted to cancel. Was told it my account was cancelled there & then & I wouldn't pay anything else. What did she mean anything else, I didn't know I paid anything.! Thats when I come to fine out & was charged the $150.00 for the year fee.! I went Crazy & tried to get it back but no way.!
I even contacted the credit card company & just found out they could NOT reverse the charges because of the way this scam is worded.

Im sure if you reading this it's not because you did your research first on them but because you too fell pray into there scam so Sorry to tell you all that we are ### out of luck & they will continue to do this & make a killing of fools like us.

It's a shame this is allowed & they continue this mess but Carma is a ### & I hope they have it coming to them. Maybe they will be hit by a bus or even the building burnt down with them all inside.! ha ha
We need to paste this web site all over everything to let others know to stay away from this site & not make the same mistake we did.
They changed address several times & now its CO so lets contact BBB there & get them shut down for good.

Be ware everyone. Mo
