NailBidder

NailBidder Acquired by Penny Auction Solutions

Over the weekend, we learned some good news, and some not-so-good news regarding NailBidder.com, one of the older, most stable penny auction sites in the industry. First, the good news!

NailBidder.com is proud to announce it has been acquired by Penny Auction Solutions, a Nevada corporation. With this acquisition will come some VERY exciting changes for all of our members! As with all changes there is always some growing pains, however in our case Rusty is still in charge and will remain the BOSS of NailBidder.com! There will be no loss of his excellent customer service and/or support staff. We look forward to growing and making us the #1 penny auction site in the world! For more information on Penny Auction Solutions, please visit their corporate website: www.pennyauctionsolutions.com.

We wish both NailBidder and Penny Auction Solutions our very best in their new venture. We have contacted "Rusty" for more information on this acquisition, so for the most up-to-date news, check back in with PennyBurners regularly!

Now, on to the not-so-good news...

We are saddened to inform of the passing of Rusty's grandfather yesterday morning at the young age of 98. Unfortunately, NailBidder will be closed this week and will reopen Wednesday, May 16th while Rusty and staff pay their respects.

We were very sad to hear the news of "Grandpa Rusty's" passing. Over the past two years, we've had the privilege of hearing many wonderful stories about "Grandpa Rusty" and we know that the NailBidder Team will miss him dearly. Our thoughts and prayers are with Rusty and his family during this difficult time, and we wish them peace and joy in the coming weeks and months.

If you have feedback for NailBidder, wish to discuss the acquisition, or would like to leave condolences for Rusty, please visit the NailBidder Penny Auction Forum on PennyBurners.

NailBidder Acquires ScoreLuxe Assets

The PennyBurners Team wishes to take a moment and congratulate NailBidder.com on their newest acquisition, ScoreLuxe.com! As we've hinted at for the past two weeks, and again on the Friday night edition of PennyTalkRadio, ScoreLuxe has been in the process of some big changes, and this is the BIG change we were talking about!

ScoreLuxe contacted us in April regarding their desire to sell their site to a reputable buyer. They wanted to avoid selling their site publicly, and asked if we knew of anyone interested in acquiring their site. We inquired a few of our site owner-friends, and found that NailBidder was indeed interested in acquiring the assets of another site (they acquired the BidCricket assets earlier this year). Both NailBidder and ScoreLuxe were Verified by PennyBurners, NailBidder was the first site to get Verified before they opened.

What does 'Acquiring the assets' mean? It means that NailBidder purchased the parts of value from the ScoreLuxe, instead of buying the whole site, which would include debts, fulfillment and other liabilities. In this case (as we are privy to the deal, making the introduction between the sites) NailBidder purchased the user base of ScoreLuxe. They also acquired some liability in the form of bids. ScoreLuxe just acquired OohILove's user base & bids liability in March. There was undoubtedly a lot of bids outstanding in the ScoreLuxe database, and NailBidder credited each user on a bid-for-bid basis. This was a generous way to welcome the users to NailBidder.

Sam Carnahan, former CEO of ScoreLuxe told us in a phone interview:
