I find Bid Blast very interesting as it gives the chance to get an item at x times cheaper but it should be better explained as I thought I would only pay the tickets and not the item.
Though It is still cheaper then getting the item from the MP (if you know how to bid), it is something every bidder should know.
You are not bidding to win the item, you are bidding to buy it.
Also, while the time adding is great to give a chance to everyone, not everyone can and will stay in front of their computer for days hoping to be the last one to bid.
There should be a limit. That limit should also be closer to the end of the auction. I've been looking at a bidding war going on for about 5 hours and it says it will have an obligatory end on Wednesday, that's 48 hours!
I don't have the time to stay in front of my computer that whole time! I should have as much chance to buy this item as those that have no life and stay in front of their computer 24/24.
If someone can't come at the end time, the countdown is there for a reason, then why can they still get the item 2 days later ?
I do hope this gets resolved in a way or another.
TL;DR
Worth it if you know how to use it!
Time limit plz!
