CostDropper.com Cost Dropper, Auctions are unjustified, unlawful, and not legitimate (I thought I won, but then I didn't...) Burbank, California

Please see the email I sent to Customer Service about my experience. I will keep everyone posted re: this matter... To Whom it May Concern: I recently took part in a COSTDROPPER Auction on 7-9-11 for an APPLE IPAD 2. While there were a couple points I had the leading bid and the clock hit 00:00:00 (but the auction continued), there was a particular moment when I had the winning bid at $25.04, the window closed and it stated "ENDED." The auction area then reopened, as the clock restarted and the bidding resumed. This seems unjustifiable and unlawful. The overall outcome was pretty clear. I am reaching out, providing you with an opportunity to make this right. If you do not feel it necessary to respond or cooperate with this request, it will force me to report your company and contact the necessary parties in an effort to correct this issue. I look forward to working with you on this matter.

Good luck with this. I too have recently made a complaint to CostDropper, but a different complaint. I did though notice some timing issues like you describe with Auction Endings.

The issue I had is that they were offering and adverstising the Ipad 2 and other high value items to bid on and purchase, but since about 2 weeks ago they've pulled off all of their high value items and are now just offering what amounts to junk basically. Cheap sunglasses, jewelry, perfume and cologne. As for the bids you purchased because they advertised and offered those high value items, they will be lost in 45 days if you don't use them. Talk about false advertising, buy the junk or we just take your money?
