Yeah, how dare anyone try and take on trademe.

May trademe's fees get higher and higher until we actually lose money when we sell stuff.

Also, +1 Berg.

TradeMe needs to be proactive, they need to do something to continue their hold on the market because someone, soon enough is going to cause them a little grief.

Also, their fees have gotten ridiculous.

yeah that's a shame and all, but we've already got sella, and I love watching people fail, there's whole youtube videos of the stuff.

But nobody knows about Sella, at least Wheedle has a budget to get the word out (even though Sella is the superior website).

I also love watching people fail, but not when they are taking on my arch enemy.

Post by: Pyromanik on April 16, 2013, 05:31:06 pm
Everyone knows about Sella. But no one uses it.

I actually looked on sella a few weeks ago, there is around 90% less on there than there was a year or so ago.

Haha, I was just wondering about this site today coincidentally.

Unfortunate thing for these types of sites (similar to social networking sites) is that a lot of their utility is measured in how many people use them. It seems like it will be difficult to make up this much ground, even with extensive advertising. The ads just drive people to a site with hardly anything listed, and the user is like wtf and never goes back :/

Their ads are made from pure WTF.

Oh man, I fucking hate these emails. Especially now that they try and make them all 'happy' sounding.

I got this one a month ago, with the subject line- "Trade Me doesn't want to lose you - pay your account debt". Nice thinly veiled threat, fuckers.

Quote
Hi BerG,

Oh dear, we've noticed that your Trade Me account has been in debt for over two weeks - your current account balance is -$8.00.

Until you pay off your Trade Me account debt, you cannot place any new listings on Trade Me, buy any items using Buy Now or ask any questions on any listings, and you risk having your membership suspended.

Once your account is sitting at $0 or in credit, you can continue to buy and sell on Trade Me.

If you've recently made a payment, it may not have shown up yet - take a look at your Account statement ([url]http://www.trademe.co.nz/MyTradeMe/AccountStatement.aspx[/url]) in the next few days to check.

If you have any queries regarding your account, you can email us ([url]http://www.trademe.co.nz/Help/ContactUs.aspx[/url]) or call us on 0900 87233 (calls cost $1.99+GST per minute).

Happy trading!


I'll pay your bullshit fee's when I'm fucking ready, cocksucking cunts.

Post by: BerG on April 17, 2013, 12:14:03 pm
Also get the odd subject line "Your trademe account is sad..."

Quote
Once your account is one big smiley face and sitting at $0 or in credit, you can continue to buy and sell on TradeMe.


Sad account? Big smiley face?

What I STILL don't get is that why do they disable the option to BUY stuff when you're in debt? It's fucking stupid.

"Oh, you're in debt with us? WELL, PAY THE DEBT, DON'T THINK YOU CAN BUY ANYTHING FROM US WHICH WOULD GIVE US MORE MONEY FROM THE SELLER".

They disable your account after a while. I owe $50 and left it.

They disable my account. Can't even log in.

But I don't really care. I just don't use trademe.
Title: Wheedle is back!
Post by: BerG on April 17, 2013, 03:30:01 pm
That really seems non-sencical.

You owe a few dollars for an auction you ran which, lets face it, did not cost Trademe fuck all to do for you.

You don't use trademe again for a while and forget about the money you owe, with full intentions to pay it next time you want to sell something.

They disable your account, which means they will never get the money.



Seems to be just their way of saying 'fuck you loyal occasional Trademe users'. In the good old days I used to go 6 months without paying the $2 I owed.

There's not much of a market for Spacemonkey's these days. I don't imagine they're missing out on much. You were probably more trouble than you're worth. The tax they were taking from you wouldn't have covered the paper work cost.
