“ Trade Me needs to get rid of international sellers full-stop & outside of NZ, allow Aussie bidders only.” … which would also increase visibility for local sellers and increase their sales.
Yes, I had quite a few listings disappear. Their photos are still in the photo browser (if you go to ‘select existing photos‘) but the listings themselves are gone (and no, I didn’t delete them). I have also experienced wrong photos appearing in auction, but not as often. And no, Callum, the photo issue is NOT ‘quite likely’ due to user error. From what I’ve seen on Trademe they took the cheapest offer for their redesign, and it shows (and for the record, I’m a Molecular Biologist but I taught myself programming to write a few scientific apps for lab use, have done the computer support at e...
I write my listing in Apple's notes app (which is quite brilliant) including reference number, an image for quick identification, title, listing description, additional notes. Listing number is pointless as it changes with every relist. I then copy it across. If I don't find something that must be there then checking what I typed is the first thing I do. Next thing is to use different search terms (eg copy the reference from Notes into the search field, or use another term from the title). I don't delete anything - sold listings go into a SOLD folder. Listings that need more editing go into...
I have my listings both in my Notepad app on my Mac and in MyProducts. I wanted to relist some unsold items I had previously listed via MyProducts quite some time ago - but couldn't find them in MyProducts. They were in my Notepad app, and it turns out the pictures ARE in MyProducts - which means the listing was in MyProducts as well. I found quite a few of my listings have disappeared - so how long does MyProducts keep the listings before deleting them? I find it quite unacceptable if listings are simply removed - makes MyProducts an unsafe app to use.
My Products is part of the Trademe website, not a separate app. You go into My Trademe at the top left to see your stuff, and look in the left panel - the third item from the bottom is My Products. I recommend using it even for casual sellers like you and me.
Trademe quotes are an estimate, and the actual price CAN and sometimes DOES vary from the quote. Worst one I experienced was with Aramex where they didn‘t actually deliver to the rural address and passed it on to NZ Post for the last few miles - for which I was charged $10 over the quoted price.
> As Michelle mentions I guess can't be updated easily until everything finally gets moved across. I doubt that. And she said that the changes make it easier to update in the future - she didn’t say it is difficult now.
It’s not just iPhones, eg computer CPUs - they don’t even know Apple’s M processors so haven’t updated them for 5 years. It’s especially embarrassing because it just needs to add the names (eg M1, M2, M3, M4, M5) to the respective list that anyone could do. And don’t get me started on the list for value still topping out at $1,000 - why not have a numerical text field so people can search for any value? But users told Trademe years ago about how to improve the most annoying things and nothing was done about it, so don’t get your hopes up …
Listed a DVD & CD box with the DVD missing under CDs and was surprised that CDs count towards your listing allowance. Guess it doesn't have to make sense …
I‘ve never seen any announcement about any winners …
