Little Bid tasty Questions

[Harvez]

the same names showing up all the time, has already had a few people question if its a scam or not.
we know its not, but Joe public is already sceptical about freebies n sh!t so seeing the same names over and over just puts people off even trying.

don't know or care for a solution just thought id add my 2p worth.

it's a shame because its a quick crediting order, even credits during the completion (after a single bid!).

I would say that I have not 'lost' but not 'gained' 3 greens because of the name issue, and these were people who had signed up for me under other fj sites so had no doubts about FJ, just about the Litle Bid Tasty offer... and I was even paying them to do it!!!

I was thinking that maybe they could limit the amount of bids per person per auction, but LBT also needs to make a profit otherwise the whole thing goes to the dogs, I am sure FJ are aware of the problem of the same people mass bidding and hindering LBT for casual bidders but at the minute perhaps there isn't enough bids being placed by casual bidders to justify correcting the, could be called a problem for LBT to reach the profit margin.

I would say it's these mass bidders that's contributing greatly to the profit margin, but my guess is that they are going to be the only ones left on LBT if it continues.... KENT, KENT, SHAD, SHAD, KENT lol

It'll get to the point where SHAD and KENT lose and run out of money/into dept and have to stop buying credits etc It's been said already that shad has lost money (alteast i think it has!)?

Maybe then casual bidders will have more chance of winning something.

If you click on the auctions it comes up with the names.

I'm going to wait for another wii to go up! want to get one of those and a wii fit

I see shad is still on the go. I nearly won the flip video recorder and was outbid with like 5 seconds to go, he won it for 62p but he made a block bid of £1. Surely you've made your money back now, stop hogging the auctions and let people have some fun on the site!

with all due respect, why should he or any of the usual winners?

I know what you are saying and agree that it's a pain but if people are making money on the site, I can't imagine they will just decide to stop and lose money while other people try and win.

Oh my god i just won the iphone! i dont mean to brag about it here but i simply cant believe it!? I saw that the last one went for 19p so bid 18-20 on a skint and.......well im speechless! Yes shad and kent win all the time but this is proof again that it can be great fun and exciting!

good luck to you all!

Nice one mate, well done!

[winger15mk]

Thank you! im totally speechless!

[iFreeZone]

Well Done Mate!!! Really Happy for you!!! How much was it all together?

[winger15mk]

Well i never intended to really go for it, i have it written down that the last one went for 19p so i just bid that amount and then one either side of it just our of curiousity and ended up getting it for 18p! by looking at the graph i was incredibly lucky as there were some big spreads on by the looks of it

[tombsc]

Anything ending in 7 or 8 or beginning in N2 or N3 are good bets (7p, 8p, 2p, 3p, 27p, 28p, 22p, 23p etc.)
I used to win quite a bit on these auctions, but haven't signed up to LBT yet.

How? Because the 'spread betters' tend to put all bids between certain amounts, say 1-10p or 20-29p. To see if anyone else has already purchased the block they are thinking of, they will first buy the 1st and last number in that block ie 1p and 9p or 20p, 21p and 29p. If both 'ends' of the block are taken, they will assume the entire block has gone, and move to the next one (if either end is free, they will buy the whole block)
For this reason, the bids one inside the block ends are often left.

Not sure if that makes sense, but it used to work maybe 60% of the time.

[MJ10]

That's quite good info... although there are people who will put a spread bet of 1p - £1

lol to all the people bitching about lbt.. simple solution for you. walk awsy and stop using it, simples!!!

[MJ10]

i dont use it anymore... can't afford it! Just sticking to FJ!
