I saw a commercial for Dashdeal.com the other day and went to
check it out. Indeed their claims appear true - big screen TVs were
being bought for for for $200-$300 or less. Along with IPads, I Phones,
Cameras, etc at similar savings. But the trick here is the company

So if I wanted to pay 200 for a big screen TV why couldn't I wait until the
end of the auction and submit fewer bids?

The next big event was one day on my way to work the rear end locked
up at about 60 mph. A seal had gone and leaked the lube out. Not
long after that was fixed the foot brake went to the floor and I
sailed through a stoplight. (This was before the day of two
chambered brake reservoirs.) A
300D 2.5 should be a turbo. 190 2.5 can be either, the turbo model is

This is the concept behind this and other penny auction sites. I'm surprised
it's not considered false advertising, because the bid amounts that the auction
ends at are not a true representation of the price paid.
