| Description | Online Auction Site |
Bid-Bob.com is an Online Auction Site based in Winston-Salem, NC. Bid-Bob.com was founded in February of 2011, with product auctions starting in May of 2011.
The website presents an opportunity for bidders to save up to 95 percent on purchases, including major electronics items such as iPad2s, Flat Screen TVs, Barnes and Noble Nooks, and the iPod Touch; Target, Walmart, BestBuy, Amazon.com, Home Depot and Trader Joe’s gift cards; appliances such as Cuisinart Food Processors and Keurig Single Cup Coffee Makers; and specialty items including P90X Workout DVDs.
Bid-Bob.com is unique compared to other penny auctions because bonus prizes are built into many items. For example, even if a bidder doesn’t win an auction, he can still win an incentive prize by being the next highest bidder, or by placing a bid at a pre-designated price point.
Another unique feature of the site is the automatic charitable donation. After each completed auction, Bid-Bob.com will make a donation to the auction winner’s choice of Bid-Bob’s charity partners. Over 40 auctions a day provide many opportunities to impact both national and local charities. A minimum donation level of $5 applies to all qualifying auctions.
Some of the charities that benefit from Bid-Bob.com are: Crisis Control Ministry, Inc., Susan G. Komen for the Cure, Backpack Beginnings, Autism Speaks, St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, and the CJ Foundation for SIDS
