    BTW. None of these reverse auction sites have bots running. No need. Just look at the final sale price, multiply by 100, then subtract the actual cost and you'll see how much profit Smokoo etc. are making. And at the end of the day it's just like gambling, or buying a lottery tickets. there's a small chance you'll win, but that's the point of gambling.

    How do you know? Perhaps not in the latter stage but when starting out I'm sure they'll lose a lot. I've also watched these "auctions" and there's always somebone who resurrects then in the last few second they are about to run out. Looks suspiciously like the behaviour of a bot to me.

    Lol. Facebook ads make me laugh. "Jonway, the best quality money can buy" etc. Facebook should really start monitoring their ads :P

    In other news, I have emailed the gov. department to ask if it is legal. Although I'm convinced it isn't, I want it in government official writing when I ask for my refund So I wouldn't hold my breath, but the gov. may reply. I'll let you know what they say Otherwise, perhaps it is time to get a lawyer involved and try sue the buggers; You win some, you loose some indeed
