I first saw the company back in Domination 4 in SMX last April 10. Well, I didn’t really spend time checking their booth as I was there to take photos of Bands, Cosplayers, Game booths and gamers who attended the event for my gaming blog. When one of their girls approached me and explained to me how the bid site works then I just told her I’ll try the service at home and then she showed me a card with 20 bid credits printed on it. And I was convinced to get 1 card for 100 bucks.
Few days after I checked the site and I was amazed how low the ending bid for an Item. I told myself I’m going to buy more bid Credits and try the bidding on the site. My first attempt was nice but unfortunately I didn’t expected sometimes bidding would take hours. Make sure you have the energy to stay late at night.
To make the story short. I won the following from Winila
1. PSP GO (Actual Market Price Range : 10k to 14k )
My Final Bid : P5,277.50
2. Logitech R-20 2.1 Speaker System (Actual Market Price Range : 2000 to 2500 )
My Final Bid : P515.00
3. Sony Cybershot DSC-W180 (Sony Cybershot DSC-W180 : 8000 to 10000)
My Final Bid : P985.50
As you can see I saved few thousands from the three items above. Let say I still need to add the amount I spent for the Bid Credits. Add 2k for the bid credit expenses. I still saved a lot like 55% to 60% from the Market Price. One more thing it just so happen that there are a lot of bidders for the PSP Go thats why the price went up to 5.2k. But if you check the Sony Cybershot which I won for only 985.50.
I know your next question would be… are they for real ? lets just put it this way I’m still waiting for their notification as when I can pick up my items. I know their office, I was able to call them, I was able to deposit to their BDO account. Their support responses to my email. So far all are good. As soon as I get these items I’ll do an update post on this site.
By the way Id like to point you the an old post in which I got a NINTENDO Wii for the TAWAD NA service from Paysetter International and Globe. I got my prize after a month I think.
