The problem is that the specified shipping can be very wrong. For one thing shipping can change between when you list an item to when you sell it (and the courier does NOT honour Trademe's 'non-binding it's just an estimate' courier quote, for another courier might be more expensive because they use another courier for the last mile (happens usually with Aramex). Therefore I state that I do not know shipping yet.
Thanks
Tomorrow is the 10th, and the change over to the new system should be done by the 15th. But how can we tell if Success Fees apply to anything listed from tomorrow on?
@Harm_less: does removing a listing not incur a $3.50 fee for in-trade sellers?
The hubris of TM is mind boggling … I’ve started to move most of my listings to other platforms …
In 20 years maybe 2 people have taken up an offer, so not worth it. Most seem to be others selling or intending to sell the same thing and wanting to know what it sells for.
Given the close association of Trademe and Stuff with Trademe taking a 50% stake in Stuff it would basically be Trademe reporting on Trademe, wouldn’t it? …
@Robert “Given in-trade sellers are NOT scamming then this is simply not about making the site safer.” Not true. Blinkit (no longer on Trademe though I suspect they are back under a different name) with over 200 positive feedbacks was selling high-end second hand Mac laptops. I bought one. Didn’t get it. Then negative feedbacks started showing as others had the same problem. I added my negative feedback too. Then Trademe removed all negative feedback as the trader complained (and lied). End result: SEVEN more people got scammed and left negative feedback before Trademe froze their account....
Mine get removed. Sensitive little souls here … btw the term is in the Oxford dictionary 🙄
