Samantha    Book a Courier NZ Post prices are not the same as NZ Post shop, Your prices are Standard Economy Parcel prices, only available at the Post Shop,  they do not apply to the Trade Me Book a courier at all, 

As said above it has been going for years, by all means block yourself from it, but you will loose a lot of sales. as those that browse on there will not see your listings, as most of us use bidbud watchlist etc. to set up autobids on auctions we are watching, Please go an check it out, look at the blacklist features etc. you can comment as why you blacklisted members etc. can filter out non positive feedbacks easier,  Bidbud has a lot of good features, 

On my Auctions, I have this wording,  In shipping section, - Combining with other item, Seller to confirm cost, On Auction But some just choose to ignore this and pay one shipping usually the cheapest,  and I only Confirm combined shipping after I have received and checked their address send via Trade Me, where it maybe rural etc. or only one carrier delivers there, which may not be my Main Courier,  There are many varables when it comes to combining, always check with seller,   

Rinel  You are no longer Liable, it is now all in the buyers hands, as they have changed the conditions of Auction & shipping after you had sent it, It is the same as if a buyer themselves gets their parcel redirected, this now becomes a buyers problem if something goes wrong, as they have changed the conditions after a sender as sent it, the same rule applies if they have an ATL in place and seller sends Signature required, as a buyers ATL over rides the signature and couriers will just sign and leave like a normal parcel as the buyers request, Just be careful, this maybe a scam to get a ...

Tee Was the package appropriately packed, or was it inadequately packed?, or could it have been damaged by Courier? first thing you do is contact seller, give them opportunity to put things right, as in code of conduct, They could then submit a claim with courier if damaged in transit, You need to work with the seller for a resolution, not just slap them with Negative feedback,

I am same as Gary, I am over chasing up sellers for Tracking numbers not knowing status of parcel, has it been sent yet, is it stuck in transit etc; I would like Tracking number asap, so I can track once on it's way, and in morning's when I check my tracking numbers can see straight away, oh good it is getting delivered today (your parcel is on board with courier for delivery), As a Seller I use Book a courier, so buyers get an automated E-Mail with Link and states what day it will be on it's way with Courier, If I send using NZ post via Post shop bag etc, I insert Tracking number in provid...

As in clause 10.1.   A seller using Ping must ship items as quickly as reasonably possible (and in any case no later than within three working days of notification of payment). , https://help.trademe.co.nz/hc/en-us/articles/360007264771-Ping-terms-and-conditions

Just the same as the Certificates reaching Feedback milestones, 500. 1000, 5,000 and a T-Shirt, etc. a thing of the past, they used to encourage people to be good sellers, and work hard to earn them, now members just don't give a toss like Trade Me no longer give a toss about good members, We and all incentives to be good sellers have now all been tossed aside in same box as all the bad members, in order for them to make more $$$ from us, and as above nothing to celebrate, 

michellew2k  Why?, People can still select cash and make bank deposit, It is a buyers choice, and a sellers choice too to offer it, and I have it from Trade Me yes you can offer cash on auction so people can still make Bank deposit, which I did screen shot on another post way back when Ping was forced on Intrade sellers, from the E-Mail I got from Trade Me, Cash is not only for Pick ups, it is Bank deposit just reworded,  Payment Instructions are also sent for pick ups as well that have details in them for arranging pickups,Phone numbers etc. so you cannot in reality remove them, that would...

Callum            Apologies, thank you for clarifying that, it makes it hard when people do not tag who they are responding too, Only debt I have ever had in my life was my mortgage, if I wanted something I saved up for it first, so could pay for it in one hit, Like fridge freezer, washing machines etc. and because I did that I got big discounts off them too, not paying extra while paying them off,
