Just choose good ones! (Like me!) Seriously, though, there is plenty of info. out there about who is good and who isn't.

why did you bid on that crap when you already got one of these ! the only alarm thats of any use is satelite gsm tracker hidden alarm. There is a guy on here who got his stolen car back with that tracker.

Dear Darren,
We have reviewed the feedback regarding the auction for MONGOOSE M60B 4 STAR CAR ALARM & ONSITE FITTING (listing no. 442329106)
nokiacellphone (760 )30 January 12 nokiacellphone was the buyer (auction no. 442329106) Put Alarm in last weekend,average job i must say(put led in wrong place,left old wiring in car),been trying to get of him all week fails to reply to texts/emails/calls.Not Licenesed by NZSA so not qualified to install alarms,not accreited by mongoose so 3 yr warranty is nil and void,No GST receipt given (only takes cash) so not declaring that income (ird would be keen to catch up).So My Insurance Company says NO to reducing my premiunms ,so a total waste of $280.
This feedback was in breach of our feedback terms and conditions and has been removed.
If you have any questions about this please contact us.
Regards,
Trade Me Customer Support

Trademe has a habit of removing negative comments about large scale traders who shaft people. They even allow dropshippers to operate on TM. Best bet would be to print a copy of this thread and the feedback you posted and take it to Fair Go and/or Target, because very high chance TM will be removing this thread very shortly.

"This feedback was in breach of our feedback terms and conditions and has been removed.

We will not review negative feedback unless: ???It contains swear words or vulgarities* ???It contains defamatory statements as to the character of the individual* ???It contains the trader's contact details, phone number, surname, email address or other means to individually identify the trader ???The trader placing feedback has been permanently removed from Trade Me for misbehaving ???The feedback refers to any ongoing investigation by Trade Me, the police, or any other authorised party ???Trade Me is ordered by a valid court order to remove feedback what part did i break of the rules!

Tell TM that you are going to take this case to Fair go, Target, Stuff and a couple of other newspapers, and actually go and do it

dont worry will be taking this much much further just on principle as trademe dont want to know about it all they want is $$$$ in fees.

The fifth rule may have been the sticking point. Unlikely, but possible that Trade me (or someone) is investigating the trader!

still has listings and 150 lisitngsper month so guessing at 2 alarms a day min at $300 he is turning over $150k PA and not paying any tax/acc leviesetc great gig .
richard198,

Maybe it's the IRD already investigating him!

Did you ask for old wiring to be removed. The price would be for install not removal and install. You do not have to be mongoose accredited NZSA would be preferable.
nokiacellphone,
Jan 30, 7:05am
he has nothing at all NO NZSA or Mongoose so NO WARRANTY at all ,brand new install.
nokiacellphone,
Jan 30, 7:06am
if the IRD are not onto him they will be tomorrow :-)

I thought it had to be 5 star alarm for insurance to even think about cheaper premiums and to be honest it doesnt save you much at all.
