Howdy from the Customer Support department!

As you Bidray insiders know, we sure take in pride in the quality of our service. Our dedicated Support Team is always there for you if you have any questions or concerns! It sure is great fun to congratulate you on your latest wins and keep you guys posted on the statuses of your shipments.

Recently, our win limit of three items per week has been a hot topic in the feedback we have received. Some are down with it, while others would rather be bidding without someone telling them that they need a break when they’d rather be taking down unbelievable bargains.

After our last team meeting we all agreed that we’re ready to take action and give you the kind of auction experience You want!

What do you think about the Bidray winning limit? Send your feedback to support@bidray.com and fasten your seatbelts for upcoming changes!

Yours,
Larry

Stay tuned as we enroll the biggest improvements to Bidray yet!

The new changes will:

- Make bidding more fun!
- Boost your savings!
- Let you chose between more auctions!

and…

We hope this improvement will make using Bidray faster and more fun for you!

Stay tuned for more…

Regards,

Will W.

Hi Guys!

We just had a very exciting week after our crazy deal, which turned out to be a huge hit among our users! Thank you all for making it so successful. More visits, more signups, more bids and more everything! User activity almost tripled! But we’re really happy to see how our super-servers responded to the sudden spike which exceeded our expectations. The bumper was the fact that we didn’t recieve even a single complaint regarding ANYTHING during the offer! Our super-systems and super-team managed everything perfectly!

And then comes another good news for you all. Read the rest of this entry »

Heya!

Just after we explained Auction 2.0, hundreds of emails are pouring in! We are super-excited to see the excitement level of our users! So today, on our 2nd month birthday, we decided to launch our craziest deal yet! We’re having a never-before-never-again SALE for you! Does $0.5 per bid sound exciting? Hell yeah!
Here is how it works-

In the next few hours, when you purchase Bid Pack - XL (200 bids / $200), you will get
400 bids for the price of $200!

Never before has there been a similar offer open to the public!
There wont be any similar offers again for months to come!
Because of the huge discount, only the first 100 purchases will be doubled and the offer will expire at Midnight Central time, but will probably run out much before then!
Also this offer is only valid for existing users of the site.

If you still see the offer on the “Buy Bids” page, then you still have some time left!

Don´t miss out on the $0.50 bids offer before they run out to somebody else!

Here is how to grab the deal-
1. Go to www.bidray.com Now!
2. Login and purchase Bid Pack - XL (200 400 bids for $200)
3. Get 400 bids to your account!

Hurry! Only the next 100 sales until midnight will be qualified for the offer!

Rush in your questions/suggestions/comments fast! I hope ALL our readers avail this offer before it ends! i would encourage you all to follow us on twitter @bidray. That is the fastest way to know the happenings/super-deals/craziest-bargains in Bidray.

Good Luck!

Heard about web2.0 ? Chances are, yes. Heard about online auctions? Well that’s a definite yes. Isn’t it? Now what the hell is Auction 2.0? Well, read on.

During a recent business event last week, a newsperson asked “how are you different?”. I immediately figured out what exactly he wanted to ask. It was “how are you different from other auction sites?” in plain English. I replied, “Because Bidray is Auction 2.0, bigger, better and crazier than normal online auctions!”. And now, here is the explanation to that.

Phew!

What a month! More signups, more users, more bids, more products and a larger team! And hence more need for speed, so we got more CPU power, processors, servers and a more reliable fool-proof backend! That’s the reason we couldn’t update this blog this entire month. But now we are back, energized and equipped with more powerful servers and a bigger team. Yes, there are more people in the Bidray Team now!
Our support team is bigger, our “nerd” technical team is larger and we have some great designers and marketers on board!
We´re all eager to see what will happen next!

All this time, we made sure to reply and respond to each and every email/suggestion we received, and our users were happy to see the interaction. In fact, we were amazed to see the number of visitors coming from various social networks! So we decided to take the interactivity to the next level!

ciào,

After months of waiting, finally we’re up and running! And it feels great to finally announce the official launch of Bidray! Last night, we had a feeling that we are late, but the visitor statistics pumped us back into form! Needless to say, we are on the clouds. And why not? After all, it took us over 24 months of market research, 8 months of non-stop work, over 12,000 lines of code, several hundred emails, 10,000 air-miles and not to forget the several thousand cups of Caffè espresso, including the ones we had a few minutes back! We’re extremely excited to see the login and page visit statistics!

We really appreciate the response we got to Bidray’s free-bids-to-bug-finders campaign which we started last month! Luckily, we didn’t find many bugs and the users reported about the same error, but we happily awarded free bids to every email sender!

One thing which you must have noticed in this post, is the fact that every line ends with an exclamation! Yes we noticed that, but we couldn’t help it!

Thank you people!
