I'm not sure if you've ever heard of it, but I was wondering if the deals on Beezid are really as good as people say they are. It's that one where you bid on new stuff and, if you win, get it cheap. Does anyone know if it's worth it to get an account or not?

I would always be weary of things that look too good to be true. There are exceptions, but most of the time it's a scam. I cannot say for sure with Beezid, but I assume the website has bots bidding right before an item closes its bidding.

I know right, you know there has to be a catch or a trick to it. There are probably a group of people with enough money to show a commercial 10-20 times and get enough people going around telling everybody about it and a giant scam begins. You'll pay $500 for a automobile and it will never show up or it will be a piece of junk. Just an opinion. lol

most that let you get things cheap also charge you to bid, for example you could buy a tv for £70 but total p the bids and you may have to pay £250 in total plus postage

Use bx=1&fp=ee5b8d49ec6ea034">google for reviews before getting anything like that.

Turns out Beezid is a huge scam.

This seems suspicious. From what I've read I can gather that Beezid has dissatisfied quite a lot of people, with all those claims of being scammed. The ones who are lucky won prizes, which typically took ages to deliver.

I wouldn't trust Beezid though.

I've never bought anything over the internet. Let alone this scamming site. After a few reviews over the internet that I've read. Beezid is considered a scamming site.

I wouldn't entirely dismiss Beezid. Filtering out the rubbish reviews, you get a lot of people who lost out and a good number of lucky folks. You could cast your lot and take a shot at it. Other people claim that they were fooled into buying bids (or whatever). I also read people who blammed the auction system. I suppose it's not a piece of cake when it comes to winning an auction.

I remain sceptical though.

Their revenue isn't a scam, I looked on the site and each bid retails at .70, each bid on an item raises the price by one cent. Which means even if they do sell an Ipad (retail: $699.99) for lets say $20 than the company makes $1400, they literally double their investment.

The bots and other issues I have no comment on.
