Yeah it's real. Real stupid. It's real that you have to buy 1 cent bids for 60 cents and you can only bid in 1 cent increments. Even with ebay's problems (I've never had a problem there), at least they don't charge you to place a bid.

Is this another site like Beezid.com? I wasted about 6 hours and 40 bucks before figguring out that site is only there to make money for the web site, not provide a real auction service.

If you Google it you find a lot of stuff about it. I was checking it out because it sounded cool...there's a lot of horror stories about it.

they actually sell the item for the listed price. however, how the "price" gets to that level is the trick for making money. People get "caught up" in the action, thinking it only costs a few cents. Just like it was pointed out earlier, one must purchase bids for a set amount per bid.
total cost to bidder:
They make all of their money on the bidding process with hundreds or thousands of people bidding their pennies (each bid costs them a buck?)...

while I haven't used it, a lot of my customers (golfers) have and have gotten brand name sets for 10 to 25 percent of retail cost including the bid costs. It's one of the reasons I gave up stocking new inventory in two years ago.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
