Dubli Review
DubLi is an auction driven company. It has two websites, usdubli.com and dubli.net, which is confusing to say the least. On usdubli.com there are several ways a person can bid for a product. In the Xpress method, the idea is to keep clicking on the price. Each time, someone clicks on the price, it drops. When it reaches the price you'd like to pay, you buy it. It would seem the obvious strategy would be to get the price down to a few dollars, but perhaps not everyone is that tuned into saving or they realize each click requires the use of credits that can be purchased through the website. The next method is Unique Bid. This is similar to the methods on other bid-on-merchandise websites. There is also a shopping mall with fixed low prices on merchandise.
They offer a Super Shopper Package which requires a monthly subscription. You get 25 credits (tokens) that you can use to bid on the merchandise you desire, and also a 2.5% cash back incentive on Xpress merchandise and gasoline. Also included are two chances in the monthly drawing for travel, more credits, laptops computers, etc. The package sells for $15.95 US dollars.
You can also pay for up to $240 worth of credits (400), or sign up for their music on demand package which allows you access to unlimited downloads of "millions of songs and artists from every corner of the globe…"
