Chris is talking like he's never even visited the site, assuming it was just another run-of-the-mill knockoff. It's not.

As you mention in your post above, your design team manufactured from scratch your website. Even so, they should have considered a more original approach with regards to the design, as it is similar in many ways to bigdeal.com. When a website is to distinguish itself from the rest, brand identity is crucial. This is simply an observant opinion, nothing personal.

To me, these underrated penny auction websites that are popping up each day are bad in many ways for the business.
