 We get a lot of those BS auction site commercials where they claim you can buy a brand new laptop for $15. Those are of course a ripoff because you have to pay for each bid you place, and most of those sites only allow upping a bid by 1 to 2 pennies, so you would potentially have to make a lot of bids to win an auction. The new laptop might only cost $15 if you win the auction, but to claim your item you have to pay for all those bids you made and that generally drives up the total/actual cost above retail value. |
Your off topic is a deal-dash commercial. So you have seen the commercial.
Deal-dash is not a home shopping network. It is an "auction" site.
Totally off-topic the Syfy channel seems to be supported by pizza and class action suit lawyers.
