    Thanks for the heads up. You gotta add some specific deals though or your post will be removed by mods

    • Oh how should I do that, change the description? Thanks for the tip

    • Agreed. Better to have the post when the deals are published.

      Added today's deal, would seem tedious to have one post for each product on offer

      • Nice, I suggest putting it in the title too.

        Yeah you don't have to put them all, just the highlight(s). For ongoing sales people will add more in the comments, and/or you can update the post if you want

  • meta:

    Any good deal?

    • actual sale hasn't started yet, only the first daily steal

  • FYI NZ Post delays in Auckland are now approaching 3 weeks.

    • wow

      To be fair, it is quite variable.

      We had a package take over a month to come about 10km (I realise that it not a fair measure, but still) ordered from Farmers online around 15 Sep 2021 and arrived around 20 Oct 2021. It took most of that time to even leave Farmers. Won't be bothering to buy from them again.

      We also had another package that was ordered from MightyApe on one day, and it arrived the next (late Oct 2021).

      I have actually had more issues getting my packages collected, than getting them delivered. I waited a week for Aramex to collect a TradeMe sale, gave up with them, cancelled and got a refund, rebooked with NZ Post who took three working days to collect it, then delivered to Wellington less than 24 hours after they collected it from me.

      I also sent my router back to Stuff a little while back (after swapping to Slingshot). They sent me a courier bag, and I had to call Courierpost to collect it. I called them at exactly 1611hrs (yes, exactly), gave them the address, and the lady said no problem, they would collect it 'shortly'. 'Yeah, right', I thought. I kid you not - at 1613hrs, there was a knock on the door, and the courier took the package. You could have knocked me down with a feather!

      Alan.

    • its very variable, I'm in wellington but getting things from AK some stuff is still overnight, some 3 days. The people are obviously working overtime as some pick ups are in the evening/weekend so good on them.

      • Yup the Nz's courier/postage network is a mess and a lot of it is because of being way behind in technology and therefore long processing times

        NZPost:
        A packaged PBTech HQ AKL to AkL took around 6 days
        A package I sent WLG to AKL took 3 days
        A package from AKL to WLG took 9 days

        Aramex:
        I have a Package going from WLG to CHCH it's been 3 days with no pickup,
        Having same issue as Alan, might have to cancel and rebook elsewhere, that being said Nz post was just ass bad for pickup. Even though i live on their routes in the cbd

          I use Pass the Parcel for my outbound packages, and I always drop them off at the Post Haste depot in Penrose instead of waiting for a courier to pick them up.

          • @Avantime: Yeah i don't have a car so its a mission to do that since they don't have depots in the cbd.

            You'd think it'd be a smart move for the courier companies to have a dropoff depot in the cbd🤷‍♂️

          • @Avantime: How are Pass the Parcel's prices compared to booking through Trademe?

            • @NeM2k2: Not sure, They just raised their prices today. Register a free account with them and use their calculator.

              PTP gives out free bags and courier costs are generally cheaper if you use them, instead of your own packaging.

              • @Avantime: Hmm prices seem more expensive than booking Aramax through trademe (though cheaper than the new Courier Post rates)

                I reuse the packaging items I order come in, so that's not a factor for me.

            • @NeM2k2: You might do it differently, but I always have the purchaser pay for freight, so to me there is no saving to be made even if someone else was cheaper, and I don't believe I have ever, not once in twenty years, had any purchaser query the courier costs.

              I also figure it is slightly easier if something goes wrong, having sold the item and also booked the courier via TradeMe. However, I don't know if that would make any difference as it hasn't really happened to me. The most I had was someone say the package never arrived, but I only send signature required. I checked the T&T and it showed someone signing for it, so I said we should report it to the police, at which point they miraculously 'found' it.

              Alan.

              • @Alan6984: I do free shipping on TradeMe, factoring between-island shipping costs into the selling fee. I seem to sell things quicker that way, and also can profit a little (costs me nothing if the buyer picks up, or I deliver when they live along my commute). Sometimes you lose out because the buyer is rural, but the items I sell are usually small enough to fit in a bubblewrap bag that I can post untracked through regular post with Kiwi Stamps - delivery is a bit slower but I haven't had an item go missing yet.

                EDIT: also because trademe forced me to register as in-trade, I get a 10% refund on shipping costs when booking a courier through trademe on an item I sold with free shipping

                • @NeM2k2: Fair enough - I am not in trade (on TradeMe) - its all personal stuff, and probably 90% of buyers collect from me, so I just figure I want to get the same return 'ex works', rather than lose out by paying for shipping.

                  If I added the cost of shipping into all my listings, I suspect I would lose sales, since I would be charging more than other people for the same item.

                  Sounds like you have a system that seems to work for you.

                  Alan.

                  PS: Didn't know that TradeMe gives those selling as a business a 'bung' for booking the courier through them.

    • All my stuff has been arriving reasonably quickly, add a day or 2 and it then arrives (in Wellington)
      Are you able to PM me a tracking number where it took 3 weeks?? Would be interested to take a look.

    TBH that's a pretty bad deal and I'd consider it expensive even after the discount.

    Dell and Lenovo online have some sort of sale going on 365 days a year and even without the sale, you'd find 11th gen i7/5800hx or higher with 3060 for mid $2,000 marks and going to high $2,000 to low $3,000's you'll find a decent laptop with RTX 3070.

  • Waiting for Part 3 of the sale then (smartphones) - guessing this will be around mid month?
