A new penny auction site 24hbids.com is launched recently. John DoMiceli from 24hbids.com was kind enough to get in touch with us and shared some details about their new penny auction site.
John informed us that they will be hosting one free auction per day from July 1st to July 14th and items which will be auctioned during this will be Amazon gift cards. The auctions will be FREE for everyone. More details can be found here - http://www.24hbids.com/news
We recently came across an Indian penny auction site - www.WinKaro.com which looks like an exact copy of popular penny auction BidHere
Visit this site and you'll know what we are referring to. We didn't find any link/reference on BidHere to WinKaro or vice versa. Could it be that both are using some penny auction script which we are not aware of or hired the same developer/firm for building the site? BidHere also operates in India hence it doesn't make sense for them to launch a new site to compete with their own site.
There have been a number of exciting developments very recently at BidRivals.com that we would like to share with you:
Recently we came across a news article which says that Penny Auctions are on their way down. Surprisingly the article has been "dugg" over 100 times.
Title of article is "Online penny auctions fall out of favor". You can read the complete story here.
RockyBid has changed the auction winning limit to 3 per week for auctions under $200 USD. Below is the mailer they sent to their users yesterday.
RockyBid.com announces a major change in the auction limits. Effective immediately the new limit for under $200 auction will be three auctions over a four day period. RockyBid.com will also increase the number of items that are put up for auction each day. When asked about these changes, Mark, from the RockyBid Customer Relations Department said "this will give users a chance to have more fun and win more great products at RockyBid.com

Folks at Wavee penny auction seems to be really busy as they have been continously delaying the launch of new Wavee. We hope that the wait if really worth waiting for. Meanwhile here are a few things which you'll see in the new Wavee (from the latest newsletter which Wavee sent to their users.
TopPennyAuctions seems to be shutting down their operations and they say that they are doing it due to some serious flaws in their system flaws which is based on ProtoPenny script by nashbrooklyn(dot)com. We checked the auction site and at present the site is in maintenance mode.
Below is the mail we received from TopPennyAuctions owner Rick Austin.
I need to make you aware of some things, 1st it is with sad news that I am thinking about shutting down toppennyauctions. business is great customers are happy, but the script, sold by nash brooklyn/protoppenny is flawed. it has so far cost me thousands of dollars to correct the bugs and they are still coming, their script is sold with bots( we elimanted) but tenderosity has as a matter of policy 10 thousand fake bidders running currently. Nash Brooklyn the claimed publisher of the script is rude and a scam artist. any time one of our owners complains about bugs, all we get from him is profanity ridden responces calling us names, idiots,scammers,malcontents,liars ect. his scripts are flawed something terrible, run on bots and he needs to be shut down. i can prove all that is said here. maybe a review of his script and business ethics would help save futer owners a few bucks and future mebers of his site a few bucks in lost bids to auto bots
