(It's worth pointing out here that telebid.com says the price rises by 10p unless it's an International auction, at which point it rises by 7p (the rough conversion in euros from 10 cents) but I have yet to see anything other than an International auction listed.)

Quick review of telebid.com

For what it costs, and the different increments on every bid, telebid/Swoopo is simply a not working! Some auctions have a .01 increment, and you can end up spending your entire bid pack before you see anything won! I know there is a new one coming out on the 15th, that promises one bid increment that will never change, and losing bidders will get bids back. Win/Win situation. Also I hear they will be giving away 30k worth of free items the launch date. I am going to win me something for free! Website is Shobid.com. I will be there on the 15th to win a few goodies for free! ...

Telebid Testicles (AKA Swooping Swollocks)

Advantages: Great products at *potentially* great prices
Disadvantages: Lots of money spent and no product won yet

...last decade. Yes, yawn... Telebid.com is yet another auction site you can use on the Interweb to buy stuff cheaply. Only this one works differently. While we all sit around watching eBay auctions and trying to bid in the last five seconds in the hopes that we'll beat somebody to a bargain, Telebid.com simply offers you the bargains by making you pay for bidding. It's quite a simple concept, really: each time you push the 'bid' button, it costs you ...

Confused? I was, too, but I persevered and here is what essentially happens: an item is listed on the website (let's say it's a PlayStation 3, for argument's sake) at the stunningly cheap price ...

Quick review of telebid.com

This is the worst site out - you can't get a bargain unless your just really lucky. I spent over £500 in a day and I didn't win a thing. Please don't make the same mistake, this site should come with a warning. I would recommend you heed my advice. However, I have won something on it and that only ended up costing £200, after bidding for other things and then bidding on a dvd i didn't want. This was on my first visit a year ago. Once bitten twice shy - £700 for a dvd (that costs about £12 - (BARGAIN!!!) ...

Telebid

Advantages: none
Disadvantages: have to buy bids, auctions can go on for days

I was just surfing the internet when an advert came up at the side saying about telebid.com. I thought i'd give it a look to see if i could get any of the products at the prices it was offering. I went to sign up and then realised that you had to buy your bids and the chances of actually winning were slim. Personally i think its just a scam that has been thought through to pull people in. There are many disadvantages, to begin with if someone bids ...
...means that the product could potentially last up to a month. It would cost a fortune to buy the bids to win the product and they must be making alot of money as you can only purchase the bids in groups. I don'e recommend this site an i say think before you join... ...
