offers
AnsweredWhen making an offer to members on my watchlist after the auction has closed tm does not allow me to see who I'm making the offers to? all of the members in my watchlist are blanked out ! this had been happening for over 2 months now. anyone else have these issues or a fix? same thing happens on mobile or desktop site. we need to be able to choose who we make offers to! tm may have changed this to increase sales. they say its a glitch and they are running updates in the background when asked.

Hello jpicard. Yes, everyone. And has been much longer than 2 months.
The only fix/workaround I know of at the moment is to use My Products. This forces Trade Me to make your listings in the old format, not the new format which are the auctions that are affected by this issue.

Both My Products and Tradevine are owned and run by Trade Me.
My Products is the free version that I have been using for many many years.
Tradevine was originally a third party product but Trade Me bought them out in 2012. It is a paid model. There were some grumblings that responses to any issues are very slow or not replied to at all on there. I can't comment too much as I don't use that one.
Both are perfectly safe and have many advantages over listing and managing your auctions the traditional way.

I just had listing, unsold as it happened, tired the same thing -yip no watchers showed so did not bother with offer. I like to know who i offer to. No point offering to someone whos likely got it and i know them.

Personally I don't see the point of doing an offer anyway if you only have one item. Isn't it better to have your item out there on show for a potential 4 million customers rather than locked down to a few randoms who have added it to a watchlist?
