Scam
You are lured in by the promise to bid on items such as i-pods, etc. with the chance of succesfully acquiring these items at low cost. You will see advetisements mentioning some well known company's that are supposedly vouching for this site.
You are then asked to provide registration details in order to be able to start bidding on the items and are asked later for your credit card information. At this point, your credit card is directly and immediately charge 159$. There's no prompt to ask you if you're sure or to tell you what's going to be provided for your money. If you were to go forward, you would see auctions with an almost impossible chance of winning, with most of the avaialble purchase items being chances to purchase more bids. In order to get your money back they want you to mail in a signed-off form, but you need to use up your bids first. To get out of this without mailing in my info, I threatened to involve the legal authorities including the FBI. I then had my charge reversed. You may want to dig deeper into the individual's websites that are documented on the internet in order to be aware.

Stay away from these guys
Stay away !!! Sounded like good thing to try, after they took my money decided I didn't want it, so tryed to get refund and guess what when I tryed to they were shutting down and no refunds. Well did get money back because I got my bank after them. Took awhile but finally got it back.

$159 charge before entering
Total scam!! Noticed the $159 charge, was told by "online chat" to download and send in a refund request form within 90 days. Then I had to wait 28 days for them to "process and confirm my request". Then I had to ask for a "release of funds authorization" to give to my credit card company. Now they say thay have changed the refund policy from 90 days to 45 days and I therefore don't qualify for a refund. Nothing but runaround, constantly changing the goalposts.
I'm working with the Canadian Attorney General's office, but I will be surprised if I ever my money back. What a racket!

refund -
went to the website to "look", asked for info, had to enter prior to searching, contacted the customer service, they gave link to orms, said fill out, write expedite, and would have refund within 30 days, filled out, mailed and faxed, that was October, still no refund or response. Contacted Wachovia, said no assistance they could offer. Seems like a hard $159.00 lesson learned,

RIPP OFF
They say they work with the police departments from South Florida, getting a lot of electronics from seized drug deals, and checking them to make sure they work right, and also say they have tons of electronics at a cheap price. They advertise all this nice stuff for sale on the front page, then you have to join to be able to bid on these items, like ebay. Once you join they hit your bank account for $159.00 and on the next page tell you, you have to buy bid packs, which is more money in order to bid on certain items, well the items they have up for bid isn't what they advertise. They have old out of date stuff, trying to sell it for new up to date items. This is such a scam, they tell you they offer a 60 day money back guarantee for your money, but then won't get a hold of you, you contact them for 60 days and still they don't refund your money. I had to go through a dispute with the company and my credit card company. I filed everything I could to be able to get my money back. Still have not heard back from my credit card company, but I did file against them with the Better Business Bureau. Anyway just to let the public know, this is a big scam, don't be fooled like I was. I found a great computer for my husband for Christmas through TiggerDirect.com they have legitmate computers for sale, and will take it back and give you a refund if it's not working right. They are awesome.

This site swipeauctions/swipebid is a scam just like all other penny auctions
This site swipeauctions/swipebid is a scam just like all other penny auctions. i had tried one of them before; bidcactus. i will never be scamed again by folks like them.

All of these so called penny auction sites are scams, i mean ALL . Without even reading a review, from what goes on their, its easy to tell they are scams. IT IS WORSE THAN GAMBBLING. They call it it penny auction, but one bid is not equal to a penny. So far, if its not ebay, then its no auction.

refund
I did not realize i was being charged the $159 fee and called to cancel my account. The account was never cancelled and the password I had used has never worked. No one from the company got back with me to explain how to "find" my password so I could use this account (thinking that I was not getting a refund). Now, I see the site has shut down and I have never been able to use it and have never been issued a refund. I usually do not buy over the internet and actually, this is the first time. Lesson learned. I would like to voice my complaint.

charges not authorized
They billed my credit card for $159.00 without my consent and I called them and talked to an agent
by the name of Victoria#sa1408 and she said I would be refunded the $159.00 plus 2 payments
they charged of $11.95. I called back to see why I had not received my refund and was told
they did not have any money to refund the people that were scammed.

fraud want refund
I was on the auction site and had 4723 bids left in my account which I paid for on my credit card. I have paid over $300.00. My login name was 66queen and password was prom queen. When I made a complaint about no products being up for auction only bids were, I got no response. Recently I found out they were shut down. I want a refund on all the bids I paid for.
