779248 2009-06-05 02:29:00 Out of 318 purchases on Trademe I have only lost money on 2 of them, luckily neither were high value.

At least in both cases the trader was disabled shortly afterwards (pity they don't send someone around to shoot them in the kneecaps and disable them properly :lol:)

But Tardme are such ****ers... You email them something and they send you an automatic reply telling you that they have read your email.. which is complete bullshit because if they had read what I had sent them they would not have "forwarded it to their investigations team" (if they even HAVE an 'investigations team')

if you want to know anything sensible, you have to waste money on their 0900 number (not that I've ever done that).. I'm sure with all the money they make of Farasha/Sharaz they can afford an 0800 number

779250 2009-06-05 05:28:00 I know where Featherston is, I've been there.

You could say the same about most small towns in NZ, thats a rather large generalisation you've made.............


No, featherston would have to be near the bottom of NZs small towns. It is certainly the lowest ranked small town in the Wairarapa, when it comes to socio economic levels and wealth. Houses and rents are cheap out there which is why it attracts a lot of the lower paid people.

779253 2009-06-10 00:07:00 ... Wouldnt have happened when that Morgan dude owned it.

I think you will find it did, may have actually been worse.

I had one seller who admitted in email to be underage(at school) & the software sold was pirated (Copied)
Despite my proof of underage user selling copied software; Trademe did nothing.

Another seller, hundreds of red faces (mainly non delivery & not answering emails) his a/c is still active: why no action on his poor record??
And people are still stupid enough to by from him (I have to put my hand up here)

That site was actually down for ages due to the threat of legal action (see the e-mail on the site) but it 'mysteriously' came back up when Fairfax bought Trademe.
