Those penny auctions was actual 5 or maybe 10 years ago?! I didn't know that people are still playing it.

At least post pictures with prizes and your username on paper. To prove us that prizes are real.

Have you won any auction on this site? if not, how do you know they're genuine? they could easily rig it and win every auction by themselves, i would strongly advice one to stay away from sites like these.
I'd suggest to try this site instead (https://truegame.io/prizes), they're still in beta/testing, currently giving away $10 to try their games, everything is verifiable/on blockchain.

I don't know who will believe in this kind of website as if you look at their completed bids you will see that they are literally giving away the auctioned items at a lost. I mean come on man!!! 2 cents for an Apple Watch and 30 cents for a Galaxy S8? Also all of the winners are repeating. They don't even have a time to post pictures of the actual product. All of the pictures are grabbed from the internet which is really one of the red flags that this is not a legit auction website. If I were you I would stay away from this kind of website as it is nor trustworthy. They must have a reserved price or something in order to achieve their selling point even at a discounted rate.

Funny of you to say that the other site is not trustworthy, when you are publicizing your own website that does pretty much the same thing lol

For some reason I just do not trust any sites with the domain .xyz!
It seems they just went for a cheap hosting company to get the generic name.
If they had any funds they could just have a redirect to their domain. Smiley

Custom domains, like .xyz, .land, .app, .whatever are getting more and more popular lately.

Even Alphabet (Google's parent company) has its domain as https://abc.xyz/

Not sure about other people, but I signed up for that site a couple of days ago and got the 5 free credits they offer and used them to spread them through a couple of auctions that were running to get the hang of it.

When I had the hang of it, I thought screw it and put $10 on it (10 credits), and made 10 multiple bids on a PS4 auction (0.01 to 0.10) and I actually won.

This is the auction that I won: https://cryptobids.xyz/details/19260

For some reason no one else thought of bidding 0.01  Grin

After the auction was over I got a notification on my auctions page to pay for it and set up the delivery address, aswell as an option to get the BTC value of the item instead of the item itself.

I actually preferred the BTC value, so I didn't have to pay customs and taxes to import it to my country (Brazil), which has huge import fees.

Here is their TX of the BTC prize: https://blockchain.info/tx/6dc34c18214ee8e7e3323916dc0cc9ec42f18d95c8b6e9aa8eb5517d0e7bb2e9

I don't know about anyone else's story, but I can say from my own experience that they're legit.

Hello guys!

What about this new website?

https://cryptobids.xyz/

You can easily a lot of thing...an iPhone X for example! Take a look--> https://cryptobids.xyz/details/19264/?ref=756

Or many other things!

Thanks!

What about this site? How can people believe what is on this site? First they do not have any proof that they hold the items, second let say if they hold it, how can they deliver it to us? Everything that they use in the end will get our personal information to be used for anything. This is quite risky to play this kind of game, it is to good to be true

Yes, but betting on a roll of a dice that the owners can always control the output is totally legit  Grin


let's hope it goes well for you!

Ok guys! This is what happened!

I funded my account with 200 Credits: the total amount was 205 (including the free BIDS the system gave me upon registration)

https://imgur.com/kQ8mHD9

When the countdown was more or less around 1 min (maybe a bit less) I placed a "multiple bid" from 0,01$ to 0,10$:

https://imgur.com/kcZhChl

I become the temporary winner...I waited a bit and...nobody bidded against me...Huh

Somehow I won the S8 for 0,02$! (https://cryptobids.xyz/details/19272)

https://imgur.com/fKpoSoF


I paid the 0,02$ (the system took it from my credits:

https://imgur.com/Sjzf8lC

Updatind the shipping details..they say they will not send me the item (probably the do not send in my area...?)...however I put my BTC address...

https://imgur.com/JuvcLA8

Now there is the time of the truth: will they send me the prize?

To be clear I will publish also my BTC address: https://blockchain.info/address/1PPXxYoY6ZHrSzanPzDneGJK5smRiRE3aQ

Well...nothing to do...let's wait...if within 24h they will not send anything...it is a CLEAR SCAM!

By the way...I updated 200$...while 10$ was enough  Huh Huh Huh


Nice dude! When I won they did have the option, but I didn't want it as the custom fees would not be worth it. Perhaps that's why they suspended it?

You can check on every dice sites, most of them have this verifier to check every single bet that you make here, so there is no way they can even cheat on it. This is really a great thing to verify your bet if you said they are cheating

For mambo, I do hope if you can win some prize here but still I wondering how they are going to deliver it. And we also can't even know if their admin are taking part on this or not

What verifier? How is it implemented?
