Makes no sense... No one is going to sell a Playstation 3 for $0.16... its so absurd that no one is even going to take your site seriously.. If you are trying to go along the penny auction site style... you are wasting your time.. Never seen one work from a small scale launch

We are already in operation, and have been for over 2 months, with over 1500 members... The fact that one item sells for 16 cents doesn't mean the next item will, its all about averages my friend. Also, small scale launch penny auction sites that worked:

BidCactus.com
Swoopo.com
Quibids.com

All 3 started as we are, and all are making millions now while being in business for less than a year (with the exception of Swoopo who has been around from the beginning and has been making millions since the start).

Next time you want to make an reply that is ignorant and not very well thought out, do us all a favor and go somewhere else to do it.

Thanks

Also, why not at least visit our site before you judge it? I was under the impression this forum was to help young entrepreneurs, not to try and bring them down.

I have to admit it has a slim to zero chance of taking off,most of these sites go under in a short time duration.Just hope you did not spend a great amount setting it up.

Feel free to check out our alexa ranks, or check us out on Pennyauctiontraffic.com, Pennyauctionwatch.com, Pennyauctionlist.com, and so on. We've been in business for about 2 months and we are already getting an incredible response.

What makes BidFather.com different from all those that failed, is the fact that 99% of those that failed were scams. We pride ourselves on the customer support we offer as well as much more.

Apparently this was the wrong place to come for help?

Just your advertising slogan screams don't take me seriously - "Save up to 99% off brand name items". You need to do a little market research. There is a point where offers go past enticing and straight to 'scam alert'. Whether or not you are a legitimate business your marketing is not geared towards reasonable people. Advertising that a Playstation 3 sold for $0.16 can also land you in a little trouble if the sale was not completed and the item was not delivered.

Have you done research into how much money the sites you mentioned spent on marketing to get started? Do you know how much they are making? Are they profitable - how do you know either way?

My statements are from a marketing perspective and a (semi) experienced investor. Your marketing message screams "Stay Away" to both potential costumers and more so potential investors. You don't have to listen to me what do I know...
