    Just edited an auction template and changed the folder to be activate later tonight, but it will not save? no warnings on it, and no reason it would get a warning, anyone else having same issues of not saving, or is this just another of the many bugs?

    If they kill My Products, they will literally be killing Trade Me, as that platform is the only thing keeping a lot off us here, as listing on the actual site is a dogs dinner, which does not effect those of us whom currently are using My Products, but the appear to be trying to push people towards my products?

    jlo189 On the new layout do you still get the manage my bookings? Trade Me - New Zealand Online Auctions and Classifieds as you only need to go there to track your bookings, I do not go to sold to check, I am still on old format for most things, on this account, not sure what is happening on my personal account will find out when I return home, just catching up with what is happening here,

    Yes, this is very poor thought out idea, You should never restrict pick ups for locals only!,  Years ago when I allowed pick ups, I sold a good barely used awning off my Classic Beach 70's (Inherited) Caravan (no longer Road worthy, would never be moved either), as was never used, no space to even put it up, just took up storage, But the buyer who was after that brand and size drove all they way up from New Plymouth, as a rare find, they had other trades to pick up also en route, so they had a good weekend on the road collecting there trades, another fragile Item I had, buyer drove hours to...

    shortsbandy Even Trade Me themselves have said in correspondence buyers can still pay via Bank deposit if they select cash, yes they just took focus off Bank Deposit by rewording it to Cash,  What you cannot do is draw attention away from Ping on your Listings, by having at top of listings Bank deposit available, just select cash etc. or do not pay via Ping etc. in listings,  Even this, stated on here by staff which implies the Buyer can pay by their preferred method and not use Ping.

    jpicard      You need to look at the bigger picture, I cannot sell my items on Facebook the way I do here, small parts etc. Facebook is not for all of us, yes full of scammers/tyre kickers, I only put large pick up items on there on my Local pages, not market place, even some Admins on these pages muck you around, not of honest intergrity!!, oh yes there is one we personally know whom got run out of town after stealing off a charity organization she was suppose to be helping?, then other things came out of woodwork when called out on local pages, yet still Admin on a page?. But I am a s...

    jpicard Yes, I understand that, But that is a risk a buyer is willing to take?, it is the buyers choice, why penalize us all by enforcing Ping on all?, we are not all the same, we sell different items, in different ways, there should be a warning come up if they click on Cash / Bank deposit that it is their risk, pay via bank deposit, and we will not help you if something goes wrong, which when clicking they are forming a contract with, it may make them think twice if in doubt, rather than forcing Ping on all,  But Items I sell, do not impose that type of risk at all, low cost for starters...

    jpicard, But some off us are not scammers and unlikely to ever be,been here 21 years, well over 22,000 trades, 100% feedback, what does that tell you?, should we be treated like bad eggs?, thrown in the same basket?, just a sign of the times, just no respect for loyal long time members anymore, my feedback speaks, unlikely to scam, it should be buyers choice how they pay,

    retrocentric  Yes, a lot of my customers prefer bank deposit, my regulars still prefer to pay via bank deposit,  Some out there do not have credit cards, some cannot use ping as Institutions, Schools Kindy's, Toy libraries etc. whom need 2 people to sign off a bank deposit, Ping is not for all, and my feedback says I am not a risk where they are likely to be ripped off,  as some one said in a past thread, Trade Me are putting peoples lives at risk, which is true if some take their blinkers off, to see the bigger picture outside there box, and the damage all these changes are doing, they ar...

    jan   You can do this if the sellers have "CART" offered,  I personally stopped Buy Now's so no cart, as it was enforced on us with the enforcement of Ping, and it cannot be removed, as when people buy 15+ items with cart and in Sold items in My Products, no tick boxes to tick individual items off when you pick them, so was wasting so much of my time checking and rechecking I have every item, as because of where they are stored I cannot pick items in order they are won on list, that wastes even more time, moving bins around then having to go back to a bin I have just been in, re stack them...
