After being a trader on there for over 10 years and trading with around 1000 people I have now seen the lowest of low of Trade Me who are now increasing fees that force many traders to pay them a slice of the shipping fees as well as the regular auction success fees. They have no right to do this and are forcing traders to provide free shipping or to increase their overall sale price to become free shipping, either way they make more money for doing nothing. We already foot the bill as sellers for people who chose "Paynow" when that cost should be on the credit card holder. Add to that they warn you that your address verification is about to run out in 2 weeks so to watch out for the letter they are going to send with a new activation code. No letter received and after emailing them twice, no answer to my queries after a week for a trader who has been on there for 10 years, and when they finally do they blame it on the letter getting lost in the post... disgusting and my address verification has now been revoked until I can get a code sent to me by applying all over again. I am now looking at selling on other sites, even Ebay will be better than Tardme... Trade Me you suck big time!. Tardme are a truely greedy money grabbing pack of baffoons who also favour feral traders that lie to claim back fees from trades they either have changed their mind about or because they are just slack. How about doing something for the people who actually make you money Tardme, we have certainly made you bit of it?!... many top sellers on there are now discussing taking their businesses elsewhere... that will be interesting.

Trademe used to be fun but now it isnt!

Trademe used to be a lot of fun, but now they have increased fees. They have stupid people who buy items who don't ask questions and then moan about it later. Who expect absolute perfection on second hand items. They say they don't get involved, but they do allow unfair feedback and choose to believe one side only, sometimes its the wrong one. The feedback system is very flawed... I have been selling on there for years but am starting to hate it now, might look elsewhere.
