top 12 swoopo strategies & tips
1. wait till last 1 second to bid, this will save you hundreds of bids. (if there is a lag, this strategy may fail.)
2. be informed as possible about the product you are bidding for. research a months worth of statistics for the particular item you want and see what time and price is most popular. you can find the data in the top left drop-down menu.
3. late night bidding maybe less competitive because who wants to be up at 3am?
4. bid on items with few bidders. the less competition the better.
5. stay away from auctions with many bidders.
6. stay away from auctions with multiple bid-butlers. (some bidbutlers will keep bidding until full price of the item.)
7. use the least bids possible.
8. don't bid for popular items that are currently hot in the market. everyone will want it and flock to bid for it.
9. estimate the number of active bidders and look for the ones with only 2-3 of them.
10. don't invest too heavily into this game, it is basically like gambling.
11. only buy one bid pack, and if that goes well you will be playing only on profits. otherwise, cut your losses and don't get addicted.
12. never let the cost of your bids outweigh the actual product.
