What is a Penny Auction?
The Penny Auction business model has garnered a bit of buzz recently. Beezid was featured in the New York Times, while Snaglo commercials have found their way into prime time television spots. The allure of purchasing items such as a Macbook for $20 can be too much to resist. However the high level of buy pink uggs australia boot from china savings comes with a certain degree of skepticism. After further investigating penny auction websites, I can conclude that several are completely legit and worth a try.
How it Works
For those of you who do not know Penny Auctions work like this: Users purchase bids at roughly 60 cents each. When a user places a bid, the price of the product goes up 1 cent. Let's assume an auction's starting price is 0, and buy pink uggs australia boot from china bidders bid on it until it eventually sells for $20. This means 2000 bids were placed at 60 cents each. Therefore $1200 of bids went into the auction allowing the owners to easily cover the cost of the $400 piece of equipment. The winning bidder ultimately spends the price the auction sells for, plus shipping, plus however many bids they used. Patient and intelligent bidders will benefit most
