Anyone heard of this auction site?

From what I've noticed, there's a reserve on items and the clock is pretty much pointless because it adds more time if the reserve isn't met... I guess once the reserve is met and the clock times out, there's a 10 second countdown.

A PS3 had a reserve for 300... so maybe you can score. Thought I'd throw it out there since Christmas is coming up.

i've heard of one called bidz i think, it looks exactly the same but is for jewelry. i know it works and its legit because at least 4 of my family members have used it.

Those are new to me. Before eBay existed I used to get all my stuff from "auctionuniverse.com"

They were later bought out by Amazon.

For certain items Swoopo seems to be all right; for others, it's a waste of money, no more.
