Unable to Quick Relist Items

Kia Ora Ross,

You may want to look into the 'My Products' selling tool which is for both In-Trade & Casual Sellers and Free to use being TradeMe's own product - This is currently unaffected by the system upgrades. - There are many experienced users of the tool who hold a wealth of knowledge & are happy to help you through. - Cheers.

Thanks S. I have a message saying My Products & TradeVine would like to access my account. Are these external applications that would be accessing my account? 

All due respect but I'd rather just have TradeMe work as it should without issue.  I understood in the beginning that changes would bring some hiccups but it's been months now & I'd like to be able to trade as I always have without any extra complexity.

Cheers Ross,

They are both TradeMe inhouse products - they aren't invasive and work with your normal account info' for Listing. - I do hear you and My Products isn't for everyone though those who have made the switch don't look back once they realise how much spare time they have on their hands.

Have tried repeatedly to relist unsold items and only two went through (same category) - the rest remain ignored, even if I try to relist them individually. These are all 'General' items, mostly books.

Trademe is therefore not functional for me at the moment (hardly practical to repeatedly make new listings); I am simply waiting for it to be fixed. TIA for your time & expertise.

Kia Ora M,

Sorry to read of your Relisting inabilities there,

Have you tried going through the 'Sell Similar' option instead? - Yes! unfortunately this is a 1 x 1 Listing approach also though less time than creating a New Listing. - Cheers.

Hi S, is there a plan to fix this issue or is everyone being pushed to use My Products instead?

Kia Ora Ross,

I believe it is in the works of being resolved & reinstated However I'm a Member just like you, I'm not TradeMe so I have no updates on where things are at with this specific fault, perhaps someone from TradeMe staff may like to give us an update on this please? - Cheers.

Kia ora S, Ross and M, sorry, I don't have any update on when things are at with this specifically. The team are working hard on the changes to the site and getting features back up and running. You can read about the changes here and here.

Hi Michelle,

I am having the same issue now - the bulk relist feature is gone, and there is no suitable alternative. It was still working for me last week.

Looks like the only option for me is to go through the pain to relist them one by one now.

In terms of product management, this is some very bad practice. You should either have clear prior communications (6+ months earlier) about which feature (be specific) will be retired / removed to set correct user expectations, or provide clear alternatives to users before removing the feature, and the latter is the de facto practice for any "feature upgrades", if you cannot do that seamlessly.

Hard removal of feature without adequate, clear communications results in plain bad user experience - it is an experience degradation to all users.

Trademe is not some nameless business - please take good care of your reputation. I would say I was just surprised that Trademe would still make such primitive mistakes.

And no, the links you provided are just some "general talks" - please be specific about any features to be removed / modified with clear ETAs, preferably in a table, and over-communicate to your users.

I have returned to trade me over the last few weeks... and have found no end of problems.  Some things won't relist.  Some listings do not have the option to offer to watchers.  Others I can relist but it has to be done idividually, quick relist not working for everything.   Plus other issues.  Is there a timeline for sorting out these problems?  It is very frustrating.  

I'm dealing with the same issue and feeling really frustrated. I can't believe brands like TradeMe just keep ignoring their customers' voices.

I've had the exact same issue for several months.  No wonder many friends only use FBM now

Having the same issue! so annoying! have had to use facebook marketplace now as I cant keep doing this every week for  20 items. 

Kia ora oth23, have you looked into using My Products, it will automatically relist your unsold items without you needing to do anything. You can just keep track of your sales. Lots of members on Community use My Products and they're happy to help with advice and troubleshooting if you need it to get you started. 

Hi Michelle, are there any plans to fix the issue?

Kia ora ferman, the team are working on the features that are temporarily missing as part of the upgrades to the site, however I don't have any timeframe to update you with.
