Can't believe how many people fall for that scam... Does greed really impair people ability to use common sense?

For people who have no idea... Quibids is like ebay only you wont get your money back if you lose. Imaging 3,000 people bidding an average of $100 for an Ipad... Quibids makes a whooping $300,000 of a $600 Ipad... Yahoo, local media, and etc all advertise quibids so be careful people.

You gotta give them cred for the sheer genius of it. Its one of those, "how did I not think of that first?"

To elaborate. The user purchases "bids." You buy the "bids" in lots, 20, 50, 100, what ever. Items like ipads, gift cards, even gold bars are auctioned off on a timer. Every "bid" adds like 10 seconds or something to the timer. So you sit there with your 20 bids waiting for the 2$ ipad's timer to get down near zero, and just before it hits 100s of people bid and you see the price go up a few dollars as time is added to the clock. Finally when the ipad gets to about the price you could get a decent used one for people stop bidding on it and the highest bidder is committed to pay the price at which the auction closes.

One of the most genius ways to capitalize on the stupidity of millions.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By TimeTravelerTep · Posted

      Honestly, it wasn't on him last game. There are many other reasons that come before Bryce. Dave Canales is really starting to worry me. I mean there are glaring issues that can't be excused. I said back when the whole Rico/Chubba thing happened. I said right then that you cannot have a coach that handled those 4 or 5 games the way he did. I get it, most thought that he was trying to throw games, which was not wrong thinking because of how bad it was. The decisions right before half. The strict "Chubba gets this drive and Rico gets the next." It's seeming like a lot of our backups are the better talent, so he cant evaluate talent. Not calling a quarterback sneak because of size. Small quarterback have a different type of advantage, just not as good as a large quarterback, but still doable. Then he doesn't even explain why he didn't put Dalton in there (saying it would give away a quarterback sneak is...just stop). I honestly think he forgot about putting in Dalton. There are so many others that I'd have to re-watch the games to remember.  I could make a whole other post on that defensive game plan...absolutely awful. And a quick petition...see the quote above, can we please ban these weirdos and try to clean this place up. This is peak reddit right here and these losers will destroy the board. I couldn't make it though 3 pages because these morons post more than anyone else. These are the perpetual online freaking weirdos banned from getting too close to schools reddit mod types. Get these losers out of here. You got these freaks posting a ton and not answering the question OP posted ABOUT THE PANTHERS. This is supposed to be about football and this dork constantly tries to attack OP's question. Could you imagine someone in your real life group acting like this? You'd kick his butt out immediately. And you have this reddit loser trying to stop people for posting about the Panthers. Any normal person would just skip the post, but you have to remember these morons base their whole personality on their online persona. They would be banned almost everywhere else. Send him back to reddit, they will be a cancer to this place, trust me. I guarantee you he has more comments than 95% of accounts. These guys are the lowest in society so they live online. Its everything to them. You dont want that. Just read his responses. Do background check on that guy, there are younger people on this too and he probably isn't allowed to be talking to them, or be on here at all.

      Neither of them are getting in. Cam had HOF potential but was squandered by Ron, Shula, and Gettlemen.

      We have attempted several over the past two seasons. Maybe two successful?
