It is not new if you apply it to every industry but new to this industry. A main difference in this site opposed to others is that people will be able to pick up something from the rewards store with there rewards points. Unlike any other penny auction we give back 5 percent of each purchase. That is more then credit cards...and there is no limit. What we have done is created something that can clean up all the excess snakes that people would normally sit on when not sold, and giving it back to the community. Best of all we buy them outright. This act will circulate the industry and stimulate growth to people who wouldn't even consider buying a morph. It truly is a win win. The only catch is that we only do top quality and known lineage. So tell me, if you got a morph for 95 percent off and paid 30 dollars to get it you would not be happy? I know I would:-)

If someone buys bids and doesn't win, do they lose that money?

What happens when someone buys a bunch of bids and then doesn't win? Do they lose that money?

Yes they do, but it's a chance you have to take... If this doesn't appeal to you, it's ok I'm sure he didn't create this with your approval in mind. I'm sure that there is an equal number of people of who don't like it as those who will participate. As long as Zack gets w.e it is he wants out of it, and everything he states is honest, then it worked.

Unfortunately I'm no big money baller, so I can't invest too much into points. Taking that into consideration I will use my points wisely and I COMPLETELY understand that I could very easily spend $100 in points and not win and I'm ok with that, because if I do win, I just saved probably hundreds of dollars on a morph I probably couldn't normally buy.

If people take what I just said into account, and play it smart, then no one should get upset (considering the winners are real people are aren't associated with the company) if they lose. I can bet money they'd be damn happy if they won. All in all it's a win-win situation if everything goes over smoothly. The winner got a snake for cheap, and the site made its money.

So for those of you bashing it, grow up. No one said you have to like it nor support it. And I'm not saying to not give your opinion on how you don't like its setup, or the fact that you don't like that the site is making money. That's fine, but all the stupid comments claiming it's a scam when the first auction hasn't even ended need to stop. You guys are ruining something that someone took their time to setup. No one is pointing a gun at your head and saying you NEED to join and bid. So if you don't like the idea of it, there's a very simple solution, don't participate.

As for those of you who are participating, don't bid too much on that female Butter, I want her lol

If the first auction hasn't even ended yet, how come they already have banner ads on fauna claiming a bunch of snake were sold for a couple dollars?

A sucker is born every minute...

p.s. why are you answering for the site owner? You have any connection?

As for the ad, which I haven't seen, you'd obviously need to ask the site owner.

"A sucker is born every minute..." What time were you born then?

Lastly I have actually no connections to the owner or site what so ever. I get a request on FB just yesterday like most of you probably, signed up today, and saw the first advertisements for it today. I have actually emailed whoever runs the site regarding the sweepstake. If you want I'll PM them to you if you REALLY want me to prove that there is no connection between us. The reason I am responding is because people like you bother me. You're a negative nancy, a debbie downer, someone who rains on other people's parades. Here you are pretty much hating on the fact that the owner could make a nice chunk of change for these auctions. Your negative comments can turn people away from trying it, even if those aren't your intentions.

It seems to me that you're mad because 1) people will lose money (but you should know that before bidding) 2) This guy is going to make a nice profit... Hope you're not a business owner, because if you are, that mind set of yours probably holds you back from potential profits.

Business is business and as long as it's honest upfront, then what do you care if the business owner is making millions over other people in the same field?

I doubt it. Seems your the only person left on the planet that doesn't know this is a scam.

And I'm not mad about anything. I just don't want to see my fellow bp folks get screwed...

Banner ads are made to create attention. They did there job very well today. It just shows people that this site is different in the sense that you could win a snake for less then ever before. We have made it a point to be very open and truthful about everything we have done as we want people to know who we are and not just our company logo. And no, me and the other user posting in our favor has no affiliation. But I do think he has a lot of good points. I always welcome people to join us anytime they want. But for now, I see no reason to bash us. The best thing you can do now is to be cautious, watch from a distance, and wait it out until you start to hear good things from the community.

Do you gamble? If so, how is that not a scam compared to this?

[sho220]

By creating untruthful and misleading banner ads? I'm confused.

[sho220]

Nope. From what I understand, casino's aren't in the business to give away money, and I get no satisfaction from trying to beat them at their own game.

[OhhWatALoser]

its sooo easy to beat the system, there is ZERO reason to bid on it at all until the last seconds of the auction..... once people realize this, the site will go like the rest of the penny auction sites.
