One way to do it is via setting your limit beforehand. We know there’s a “worth up to price” of each auction item so we set our bidding price up to that.

Learn to accept that it happens, even though you’ve placed enough effort and bidding strategy. The best things to do is to learn from that loss, know if you had done any glitches, and try to correct it the next time you bid. Also, know what the competitor did in order to win and come up with a strategy based on that.

Be positive at most times. A positive thinker helps attract good things and events, as based on personal experience. Also, you might say its being cocky but what’s wrong if you think like that? I’m pretty sure you’d prefer that other than complaining and such. The saying goes, “What your mind conceives, your body achieves,” means you perform what you think. Just think that you will win Swoopo and be inspired with that. It helps lighten up your feeling and approach to bid in Swoopo.

Bidding in Swoopo, I know you get to notice some bidders winning consistently and wonder how they do that. How do they get to simultaneously win on the auctions? Well, these guys are considered to be the pros in Swoopo bidding. But how do they do their stuff?

To start with, these Swoopo bidders max out their Swoopo accounts every month. Remember there is a limit on the amount of times you can win in the auction? These guys are the reason why. They form a small group of bidders who are maxing out their Swoopo accounts every month. This group timely analyzes nearly ending auctions, barges in and steals it from unknowing “average” Swoopers. They don’t get to be successful always and get the best deals, but their winnings are still pretty good. The bad thing is the abuse. They get to use this again and again and again.

What do they do to win auctions nearly any time? They got the money and are ready to spend. Most of their targets are electronic devices, specifically cameras. As mentioned before, these top the great deals in Swoopo. Usually they bid via Penny Auction.

They jump into these Penny Auctions late in the game, usually at a range of 70% of the savings of the auction. They come at the right moment wherein most bidders are already low in funds. The typical Pro will spend around 30% of the “Worth up to:” price on bids to steal an item. As an example, an $899 Canon camera, would be just equal to $270.

The good thing is that you can compete with the pros. Do not be intimidated by them or fear them. Know that you also have what it takes to beat a Swoopo pro or even be one yourself. Even if you only want to win one item as a gift for someone (or yourself) you can compete by knowing the full bidding strategies in the Swoopo Manual like the best time to bid on Swoopo and on how to use the Swoopo Analytics tool.
