Trade Me, Customs Department and Comcom should be clamping down on sellers of what is frequently Counterfeit Perfume - it's illegal to sell or buy them and has been for years as is evidenced in International courts of law. It also comes under the control of AML / CFT laws. Best to stamp the problems out before they get listed or enter any other countries. If Customs Department are reading this, please help as prevention is much more cost effective all around.

Valina_k It's a public holiday weekend so maybe they are away or not able to access the internet as often as others.   If the sale is under a certain amount, you could always ask for cash payment.

The problem is Flossy63  They have now removed Sellers choice to see who is Watchlisting so makes it worse to establish just who is lurking. We are sure you too have had Watchers who have selected items just in case the item they are after is not listed.   It's senseless we consumers are denied access to seeing who is interested and form our own decisions.   We get it and understand where it's a Live Property purchase they have such a restriction, but for 2nd hand items it's beyond belief and stupid   

That's crazy roger_269 Some people use places like Backloaders or Empty trucks or similar such services that will pick up items along there way across the countryside. Great way to get items picked up and delivered.   We include in our listings for items that may be say fragile or larger that we are open to them being picked up at a later date by mutual arrangements if the person is from a different location in NZ than our own.   Open lines of communication through message systems is 101 of good customer services.

No item should be sent until the money has been fully processed. Funds can still bounce back or take time to go through what's known as "clearing house" banking systems. It's not automatically guaranteed to be paid and like making Instant Noodles there's no guarantee they will process smoothly. Fintechs are also accountable and are not necessarily compliant with a number of legislative requirements. Take the time to read through legal cases and those going through processes in courts. Never assume any form of process or payment is complete on face value. There may be a "form or template" no...

Michelle, you mention " just the ones that need 'fixing' are flagged.."  what do you mean by that and is it AI generated? We get it re asked repeatedly about "adding photos" which are already there & assume that's BC the software/ hardware haven't quite finished processing.   There's nothing coming up when we relist and there's usually always some of our listings that will relist for only 4 days and not 7.  

Only other explaination could be change of Tax year and Tax status. Some people do legitimately change so maybe don't jump to conclusions without establishing all facts.

At a guess, someone is using an American National Cash Register interface, or a very old NZ banking interface that's not compatible. We know in NZ we no longer use 1 cent coins to open a Cash Register, so who is scamming who here?   It raises the question, who is selling rubbish software that is being used???        

AJ, if you are old enough you will know and recall a Cash Register has to open, hence we had 1, 2 and 5 cents. PING will be no different as it's a form of Cash Register.   It likely is because the software used by those doing updates is not compatible to current legislative requirements in NZ.   Have a read also of the decision relating to Revolut in Italy + Lithuania that came out recently, there's a requirement to have a Licence to operate in other countries.   Hope that helps with understanding possible scenarios.   Please also nip it in the bud about conspiracies as it's unsolicited.    

Keyword in relation to Non-Delivery is in the first sentence, " You 'May' be eligible... " It doesn't say you won't be so it is misleading to say items are not covered by NZ Post as it's in there own Terms and Conditions and incorporated into NZ Postal Services Legislation.  New Zealand Post have traditionally been very helpful when items may have gone astray in the system. It's a known fact they used to have a problem with some staff in sorting rooms stealing cash and cheques out of envelopes, including from Charities in earlier times, now we are all paying the price for the minority.
