Thanks Yvonne, l have sent evidence of a screen shot of the Question and Answer section to Trade Me. l don't know how to proceed with the transaction, as only the bidders at the start could bid. What's Trades Me obligation to provide a selling / buying platform that works that doesn't advantage or disadvantage bidders and sellers and protect the sellers reputation....do l honour the top bidder knowing that l could have got more and other bidders were wishing to place bids. l am awaiting Trades Me response on what to do moving forward.
