It&#8217;s your new best friend.<\/h2>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\">This (hopefully) helpful article\u00a0is for those of you new to DealDash who aren&#8217;t yet familiar with the BidBuddy. It might be mystifying to you to see people that seem to be bidding on DealDash around the clock. &#8220;When do they sleep?&#8221; you might ask. You also might be curious why certain groups of bidders on auctions seem to place their bids in the same order every time, with 9 seconds in between. The answer to both of those questions is by using the BidBuddy!<\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/dealdash.files.wordpress.com\/2014\/07\/keepcalmbidbuddy.png?w=496&amp;h=613\" alt=\"\" width=\"291\" height=\"360\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\">The BidBuddy is an automatic and free to use\u00a0bidding tool used on DealDash, and is by far the most important secret of how to win\u00a0auctions. Here\u2019s a few different ways that the BidBuddy can help users win auctions:<\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\">You are in charge of telling\u00a0the BidBuddy to use a pre-set number of bids in each auction. Once you have inputted the number of bids you would like to use, the BidBuddy will automatically place your bids before the bid clock counts down to 0. When you set your BidBuddy\u00a0you\u2019re guaranteed to get your bids in no matter how many people are in the auction, and no matter what their bidding style.\u00a0You&#8217;re\u00a0free to leave the computer and do other things while the BidBuddy will automatically start bidding for you, you don&#8217;t even have to have your computer on. It&#8217;s extremely handy for people who don&#8217;t know if they will have access to a computer or smartphone when the auction begins.\u00a0The BidBuddy will bid up to the number of bids that you booked, and you can adjust that number up or down anytime that you like.<\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/dealdashreviewed.files.wordpress.com\/2014\/02\/screen-shot-2014-02-28-at-10-03-02.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"406\" height=\"240\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\">If more than one bidder has a BidBuddy set on a certain auction\u00a0then the BidBuddies will take turns placing the bids. Most\u00a0bidders know this and they look for these patterns, and if they see more than a few BidBuddies taking turns\u00a0they\u2019ll know that they won\u2019t win until the BidBuddies have run out of bids. You might want to try putting in just 2 or 3 bids into your BidBuddy and watching the auction, when you see a pattern you can tell\u00a0whether other bidders have their BidBuddies set up.\u00a0Almost all\u00a0auctions on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dealdash.com\/?t=blog\">DealDash<\/a> are won using the BidBuddy, so try using these tips to help you\u00a0win more auctions, the BidBuddy will never let you down, even if the power in your house goes out the BidBuddy will still faithfully bid as many bids as you have &#8220;fed&#8221; it before the auction.<\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\">I hope this helped some of you newer DealDashers!
