Only $9 to list a vehicle. I'm sure someone will post a link to all the news articles. Just getting it out there, have a gander at the pricing structure

never heard of it. Why would I try and sell a car on a site that isn't known.
Their site's gone down, too many trying to sign up at once maybe!

Worth a shot while it's popular, the influx of people will at least briefly make it quite good.

good luck to them but if you're not getting the keyboard traffic people soon give up listing stuff.

im sure you wouldn't have heard of trademe when i signed up - Wheedle will work, there is space for 2 even 3 online auction sites. Sella is ok but it needs more marketing. Wheedle has some serious backing - maybe Neil Graham should list his One-77 Aston Martin for $1 reserve to achieve a media frenzy

Rubbish name. Seriously, whoever thought of that should be sacked, along with whoever approved it. It's hard to say, too many letters & VERY unmemorable.

People said most of that about Trade Me back in 1999 - some said it sounded like an Escort agency.

Well they do provide a place to conduct business and demand a cut of ya earnings. And if ya step out of line and try promote yerself you get the b'slap email LOL
Looks like a winner, wonder if Mainfreight on board with shipping, think they own tnt couriers don't they! Have always said to people there's money to be made with an upscaled version of prepaid courier/shipping boxes for likes of trademe. How often have we seen threads on how do I ship a table/ladder/car etc. Maybe thats why the fees are so low, they plan to cash in on the freight side! Why charge someone 50 cents to sell a book when you can cream $4 for the shipping etc.
Had a nosey last night, no landscape photos for sale yet, may have to be first in, was too late at night to be bothered mucking about though.

Their launch date coincides with a Trade Me fee hike from 5+% to 8+%.Now's a great time to look at alternatives.Trade Me are continually posting multi-million dollar profits, yet the fees continue to rise.Don't buy into the loyalty thing.I'm going to be loyal to the company that isn't raping me of my hard-earned money.

I hope weedle blows the arse out of trademe. Decent competetion is long overdue, and hopefully will sort these nazi's out. I will be one of the first on board, probably soon too, as soon as the trademe gestapo get wind of this dissent I will be banished!

New trader, no feedbacks, I'm sure trademe will beg you to come back (o:
