The Future of Internet Shopping – How Smart Shoppers are Getting 95% Discounts on Brand New Merchandise

You are probably familiar with traditional auctions where the highest bidder wins the item, but do you know what “Penny Auctions” are all about? Penny auctions are a new spin on online auctions that are quickly becoming all the rage among consumers looking to get the best deal for their money. Thousands of smart shoppers every day are winning brand new iPads, HDTVs, Computers, Digital Cameras, Game Consoles and more for literally up to 98% off the retail price!

The company behind it all is BidRack. With a wide range of products and their excellent reputation in customer service, BidRack has quickly become the new way of shopping on the internet. Every day they ship out thousands of products and save winners millions of dollars in combined discounts each month.

We've seen everything from cars to phones, computers, laptops, TVs, cameras, stereo equipment and pretty much anything you can think of. Here are a few examples:

Skillful bidders have been able to buy a brand new products such as these on BidRack:

  • MacBook Pro for as low as $45.58 (96% off retail!)
  • 46” Samsung 3D HDTV for as little as $68.22 (95% off retail!)
  • Apple iPad2 for as low as $22.53 (96% off retail!)

On average, auction winners save between 75-98% off the retail price.

How are they able to offer such steep discounts on expensive items?

It’s quite simple and has to do with the way penny auctions work. Every time a bidder places a bid on an item, BidRack collects a micro-fee. For the bidder alone, this fee is insignificant, but when you combine the micro-fees for everyone participating in the auction, it adds up to enough for BidRack to cover the wholesale cost of the item and offer it to the winning bidder for a tiny fraction of the retail value.

Auctions on BidRack start at 1¢ and have a set time limit. Each time a bid is placed, the price goes up by 1 cent and 10 seconds are added to the clock. This gives enough time for someone else to bid if they are interested, which is similar to the “Going once, Going twice, SOLD!” approach of traditional auctions. When the timer runs out, the person with the last bid wins the auction. On hot items, auctions become an action-packed race to the finish as everyone competes to become the final bidder.

In today’s tight economy, it’s more important than ever to seek out the best possible deals on must-have items. Sites like BidRack give savvy shoppers the opportunity to nab products at ridiculously low prices. Add in the element of fun, there is simply no reason not to try it out for yourself.
