Holiday Reward Offers
Here is our annual “Holiday Offers” mailing, with four ways to earn more free snipes, t-shirts, and more! Reward 1: On Friday, November 27 all snipes added for all users will be free.
Today was Daylight Savings (spring forward, fall back) and so all snipes were adjusted to fire at the right time. No casualties.
Sometimes weird things happen between 12am and 2am, as the switch doesn’t update on the server until 2am. So please ignore any odd messages about snipes taking two hours and five seconds. :-)
We have posted the winners of the guess contest for the “perfect penny” value on the forum.
http://forum.bidslammer.com/index.php?showtopic=137
The newsletter explaining the perfect value” will be out in a few days.
As advertised on the forum, for the month of September 2009 we are accepting guesses on the best pennies value, 00 through 99, to use for snipes. (your guess applies to US auctions only)
You know what we are talking about too! “Hmmm… I’ll set a snipe for 67.60 on this item. Wait! Maybe I should bid 67.65. Or should I bid 67.67?”
Is this you? You are not alone, as it has been debated since eBay’s inception: What is the best value of pennies (1¢ through 99¢) to use for a snipe bid on an eBay auction? The answer would give you a tremendous edge over other snipers who bid manually or with a sniping service like BidSlammer.
And what an interesting answer we found! BidSlammer has discovered the PERFECT pennies value! Take your guess in your BidSlammer Preferences - and learn the winners first week of October!
Hey … even if you can’t figure it out, you at least will have a 1 in 100 chance of guessing right 
We doubt very many people will guess correctly so we will judge free shirts based on who is NEAREST the value.
Put your guess in your user preferences, click on Preferences in your BidSlammer account.
To celebrate the recent revamp Version 2.0 of our website, we’re offering all BidSlammer users a Free Snipe Day this Friday, June 19. All snipes placed through or service on Friday will be free for all users.
New customers can even join and import and track existing bids for Free.
Never be outbid again! You can talk to your BidSlammer account using any mobile phone or device that has e-mail or SMS capability.
We have re-released Auction Tribune, our auction search service that searches eBay and alerts you via e-mail when new items are available. See the image below to see an example of how the service looks when seen through my G-Mail account.
We are happy to introduce our new site look! You can tour the new site here.
We also launched our new community forum. All active BidSlammer accounts have been copied over to the forum, so you should not have to register — just log in! It will take a while for the forum to populate, but we are redirecting all our customer service there.
We will be announcing some of the newer features in the blog in upcoming weeks … so make sure and stay tuned.
‘Nuff said!
