772556 2009-05-13 23:03:00 You mention that you have returned the money, now they are going to pay you for the postage. Whats going on, this story smells a bit.

Looking at you own feedback it would seem you also have forgotten to pay someone for postage, and dont answer emails etc.

The word karma comes to mind.

Are you not worried someone will read this and dob Trademe trader blam6 into Trademe by email with a link to this post and your thread and get your membership disabled?
Breaking a rule by doing it properly might one of the funniest defence for breaking rules I have ever heard.

TBH I was on TM long before I turned 18 too, hopefully TM won't be too harsh about it, if they see lots of good feedback.

My suspicion is that they would probably try to turn a blind eye to it - there are tons of kids on Trademe buying and selling all the time, and some of them are better to deal with than some adults can be.

772564 2009-05-14 06:11:00 No luck. They've sent me two emails asking for info:

- Your full legal name (not just initials)
- Your full residential address (resitential, not business)
- Your correct contact phone numbers (residential, not business)

And they also need me to fax proof of my name.

:crying

I don't know what to do, do I just send them an email admitting that I'm actually 14?:(
