Ever get involved with QuiBids?

I've never seen their commercial until recently and Googled the name. The word 'scam' popped up all over the place. Here's the commercial:



The commercial claims that bids can be a little as a penny, which is why you can buy a brand new car for $1,500. What they don't tell you is that it costs you 60 cents for every bid you make, whether or not you win the bid. Lots of fees and charges, too. You can actually end up paying more than they item is worth retail.

Anyone here ever get tangle up in it?

^ Indeed. One of the reports I read had a guy paying $500 for an iPad, plus a $60 sign-up fee, plus a $30 fee for something or other, plus $180 for the bidding fee, plus shipping and handling, for an iPad (which wasn't the version he thought it was) he could have bought in a store for $350.

The site has a strategy for doing well. The bottom line is if you wanna buy a 2000 tv and they have it on the site then you can end up getting a discount. SO no you dont get things for free most times although they do give away an item or two.

BUT if you are going to spend 2000 and you bid up to 1500 and then decide to purchase the 1500 you bid goes towards your purchase. The only folks who get fucked are the ones who bid JUST with the idea that they will get something cheap. They end up losing their money.

BUT if you are going to spend 2000 and you bid up to 1500 and then decide to purchase the 1500 you bid goes towards your purchase.

But it still costs you 60 bucks on the dollar for every dollar you end up bidding throughout the auction.

I've seen this commercial and it definitely sounds like a scam just like MyCleanPC cause you see these people who say their computer is doing 200% better than it originally did.

So my question is has anyone tried MyCleanPC?


and then there is FinallyFast.com
