Looks like they're having another 100% off tomorrow, must be losing a bit of business to Marketplace recently. Seems like the standard terms for this deal:

    Vive la competition!

    Couldn't recall whether they had these free-selling thing pre Marketplace.

    Definitely losing out to marketplace for sure.

    Lately TradeMe has been full of companies, some off shore too, so it feels more like a market type product now.

    Ironically that's what Facebook is like now too, insanely full of ads.

      its like Trade me is like The Market & Facebook Marketplace had a baby
      though the process went in reverse?

      Marketplace is a thriving place for scammers. In my experience there are more scammers there than genuine buyers/sellers. I and my friends have had a few experiences (the kind of scams I thought would never happen in NZ) which makes us rather trust+use Trademe even with success fees.

      • Jaxson on 13/08/2022 - 11:01

        100%

        No verified addresses etc.

        Just trademe has a lot less content these days though as a buyer.

  • [Deactivated] on 12/08/2022 - 10:18

    What are considered general items?

    • notreallysure on 12/08/2022 - 10:21

      If you go to TradeMe and hit "list an item", the top option is 'general items', so presumably anything that would usually go under there (eg. not jobs/property/services etc)

      • [Deactivated] on 12/08/2022 - 12:33

        Cheers, I always use My Products for creating listings so never seen a "general goods" option.

  • ThatKiwiFella on 12/08/2022 - 10:26

    Timing is impeccable! Grandad said last night he’d like me to list a car up for sale

    Thanks OP!

    good that it’s free but tbh can’t be bothered using it anyway

  • Nythic on 12/08/2022 - 10:54

    Is it targeted? I stopped getting these emails while still receiving some. I'll need to check my account.

    • notreallysure on 12/08/2022 - 12:07

      Doesn't seem to be targeted, they're advertising it on the main site as well - my partner and I both got the email for our accounts, although hers came through a couple hours later than mine, so they might send them out in batches throughout the day.

      Definitely not targeted - Free-Selling-Saturday-13-August

      • Nythic on 12/08/2022 - 13:06

        Awesome! I've got so much stuff that I've cheapied over the years to sell .

  • skilhgt on 12/08/2022 - 12:35

    Is this $1 reserve or can I list any price with a buy now?

  • nomnomnom on 12/08/2022 - 16:45

    I list something on one of these fee free days with a buy now price and it sold via buy now. I was still charged a fee. Is that correct?

    • Huntakillaz on 12/08/2022 - 17:07

      should be charged and then a refund applied

    • coffeee on 12/08/2022 - 22:10

      in the emails it states the fee but it shouldn't be charged, also those $1 reserves cant have a buy now.

    • wearnes on 12/08/2022 - 22:23

      did you edit the deal afterwards e.g extend the auction date? theyll probably refund you if you done something like that

      • nomnomnom on 12/08/2022 - 22:40

        Mmm I didn't receive a refund and I didn't edit the auction. Will see if I can get a refund… Thanks all.
