Are Penny Auctions for Real?

As of late, Penny Auctions in general have been taking in some flak, some bad wrap for- well most of the time over someone's stupidity- okay, so you lost, big deal, no one always win anyways. But didn't you have fun while you were at it?

People just gotta stop takin' smack about the penny bid games. Dude, if you totaly hate Penny Auctions- don't bid, don't sign up and don't give them access to your credit card. Its that simple!

Hate it when some dude gets so freaked out over their losses, or over them not getting freebies. Rule of the Internet, dude! Freebies are NOT Freebies, there's always a catch- people always want something in return. If you feel the site is too shady, don't sign up for it. Penny Auctions are not SCAMs, they're like any major auction site out there who want to cash in on your credit card over memberships and website use.
