Dawdle is the safe, easy, and powerful way to buy all your video games, systems and accessories. We've worked to build a better online marketplace that lets you get in, get out, and get on with gaming.
Just find what you want, make one bid, and let Dawdle find the right seller with the right item for you.
Safety
Dawdle uses the highest industry standards to protect your purchases online.
To protect your data, Dawdle uses VeriSign's extended validation 256-bit encryption. To protect your privacy, Dawdle adheres to TRUSTe standards and will not sell or rent your personal information.
To protect your e-mail, Dawdle signs all e-mails using Yahoo!'s industry-standard DomainKeys technology, which is used by Yahoo! Mail, Gmail, and other industry leaders.
Easy
We make it easy for you to find what you want, easy to place a bid, and easy to pay.
You can find what you want by using the Search bar or browsing through the site. You can browse based on platform and then screen the results based on product type, genre, publisher, and many other criteria.
On the Product Page, you tell us what sort of seller you want Dawdle to find. You can screen sellers based on Seller Rating, Comes With, and Condition. You can get more information on each Criteria by clicking on the header for each Criteria item.
When we've found a seller at your price, only then will we charge your credit card. After we've charged your credit card, we'll send you and the seller e-mail notifications. Then you can sit back and wait for the seller's shipment to show up at your door. Of course, there are never any fees to bid or buy on Dawdle.
Powerful
Dawdle has a unique, patent pending process to give you unprecedented power and flexibility in buying online. You can choose to Get It Now or Make An Offer.
If you pick Get It Now, it's just like buying an item from any online store. Dawdle will place a pre-filled bid with all the criteria of that item on your behalf; you'll be a winner instantaneously. Just check your e-mail account for confirmation.
If you want more flexibility, you can Make An Offer. There's no need to keep checking to see if the price has dropped or to set an alert - you're in control of the price you want to pay.
Dawdle publishes the highest offers for every item right here on the site. We go above and beyond that, however - we send all offers to our network of independent video game stores across the country to try to find a willing seller with what you want at your price.
