So they charge you per bid, and the max "unduplicated" bid wins...this seems to be the catch...but it's still worth a gamble I say

not a scam, but not a deal either. you have to pay a "bid fee" for every bid. This is actually considered gambling and is only legal because they are donating the major of the proceeds to a non-proft.

and most of the products is 10-15 bucks per bid. basically its just a glorified raffle.
