As Callum, ask Trade Me to remove it, rather than Community watch your auction, it is quicker to go via chat, as action on community watch seems very slow theses days, sometimes no action before an auction closes. Also if it is member who has been on Trade Me for many years with lots of feedback who should better & know the rules by now and is possibly a serial offender for doing it, I have known to blacklist them, Less seasoned traders, likely not up to date on all rules, although there is a warning when you go to ask question, I just get question removed, But I never engage in their reque...

Yes place negative feedback as a warning to others, I placed negatives 2 yesterday for Items I won and sellers pulled out, both times I got Trades Mes involvement, as the excuses did not mount up at all?, but most likely already sold off site, one had been paid for too,

Tom I feel your pain, One buyer wanted combined shipping, I asked her to please send your address via Trade Me Not in E-Mail so I can confirm Shipping Response : Yes Carol I will be happy to do this, however as I have won two of your auctions, I need to know the total cost of shipment please. Some just have no idea we need an address so we know where we are sending, as may need an alternative carrier, or indeed it may be Rural, I do not just give a quote, Some argue Trade Me has sent it, when they bid or accept a FPO, I have quite a few at moment I am waiting on Addresses,    

  Sarah   Contact Trade Me via Chat, in this case buyer did not ask if you will ship to Australia, You did not have a Shipping option for Australia, Trade Me will allow you to cancel the trade, and they will refund your fees. I had an Aussie buyer use buy now on 5 items, no problem getting them cancelled, as I do not ship out side NZ, and now have it clearly stated in shipping options Australian buyers must ask sellers first if they will ship to Australia, if seller does not have a shipping option for Australia,

Malcolm   But there is already the cart option, which most of us choose not to use as sellers for various reasons, different size items etc,  ( what is good for the goose may not be good for the gander) you cannot compare Trade Me which is an Auction site to Big online companies, we are not all big stores, It is an auction side where bidding wars happen, not just buy now and add to cart, It will work for some but not for others,  

  Jill   You can apply for success fees on unused shipping, Link below, https://help.trademe.co.nz/hc/en-us/requests/new?id=fb1a5bfd-a2c0-11e9-a424-2dd53a8509e5&ticket_form_id=360000422051 Although you have a combined shipping option, do you ask on actual auction something like this, this is off mine, Make sure you select correct shipping on your 1st won item Urban or Rural rates, then use $0.00 combining option on 2nd & following buys please.  And in shipping : $0.00 Combining with other item, Seller to confirm cost , Yes note seller to confirm cost, so if the pick the cheapest shipping,...

Yvonne  that is wrong info from Trade Me, The general consensus is, the buyer as agreed to shipping on auction when they bid forming a contract, therefore if a seller goes back asking for more shipping they are breaking the contract, so the seller should not be going back asking for more shipping, where have Trade Me got their heads? buried in the sand?, they need to wake up and wise up,

Thanks Arthur, yes I read enough comments with alarm bells ringing saying back away,....!!!! My multi quantity templates have shipping laid out for number of pieces they buy, why does Trade Me want to confuse us, what works for one, may not work for another, my personalized template has worked fine for years, why try and fix what is not broken?, I can see more and more just going to be arranged in the future on auctions if it gets rolled out across the board, This is one of the auctions I use Multi Quantity, I do not want to change that shipping Template, https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/marketp...

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?

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...
