Anyone use this? I'm not really sure how it works. It seems like a cross between gambling and an auction where you can get stuff like an ipad for less than $50

Its a penny auction. Similar to swoopo.com and all those. Read about them online. You basically pay $.01 to bid, and than at the end you have to pay the final amount for the item.

You "buy" your bids in packages that cost anywhere from $10 to $1000 but the amount you bid is less that what you paid. It said you paid $50 for and iPad but you probably paid $250. The reason why the final buy price is cheap is because the bids only increase by a penny. So for a $50 item you actually had 5000 bids on it.
