Thanks everyone for signing up!  We've got enough people to run through some tests.  Tomorrow around noon EST I'll set up the first test.  I'll really appreciate any feedback on how it works.  Feel free to post here or over in the service discussion thread.

When I log-in and on Home page I click on any of the 6 picture items, it shows me sign-up page. Shouldnt it show purchase bids page when I have 0 bids left?

Yup, it should do exactly that.  That homepage is just a placeholder for now with the only goal of getting people to sign up.  Thanks for letting me know.

You lose whatever you bet. The more you're willing to lose, the higher your chance of winning the item.

Correct, it's how site like these work.  There's a ton of them out there for fiat.

Think of it more as entertainment than shopping.  Not really gambling or a lotter since there is no random chance involved.  I've heard some people have come up with fairly interesting strategies to consistently "beat the house".


Sounds a bit fishy?

What's fishy?  Not trying to hide what the site is or how it works at all.

Thanks for the note on the verification email, I'll look into it.

If you don't win an auction, do you keep your bets, or is this a kind of lottery?

Awesome. I just signed up. It would be great if you send out an email when auctions start so we can all join it.

Hiya (fellow) newbies!  Looking for a way to earn a couple BTC?  Over the next week and a half, I'm doing some testing on a new site I'm working on and am looking for a few beta testers.  During that, I'll be giving away 5 BTC total, no risk to you.

Please see the post over here for details:
