Surely davecut is right. You had a $1.00 reserve and he bid $71, if you wanted more than $1.00 why didn't you put a higher reserve or a buy now? Or if TM didn't have a problem and davecut was the only bidder are you saying you wouldn't have sold it to him?? Hmmm what is that???

Seller Comment: BTW I listed it as $1 reserve, not because I only wanted a $1 for it. Not so long ago we all recieved a newsletter from TM tellings us how GREAT $1 auctions were because of the % extra bids we would get. On the basis of that advertising from TM I listed as $1 reserve. What you are saying is ludicris. You are saying it's okay to go into a bank to withdraw $1000 and only get $999?!? That's just not kosha to me.
6:22 pm, Wed 29 Jun
I agree with 'Saved'- you ARE in the wrong, it is silly to list something as $1 reserve if that is not the lowest price you are willing to accept. You are going to get yourself in trouble with this, and people (including me) are going to be wary of bidding with you because of this. Bad idea. Give Dave the phone.

You are digging a big hole for your selve!!! a $1.00 reserve is just that after it reaches $1.00 it is up for sale to the highest bidder. This has cost you way more than the profit on the phone,,, you will be lucky to ever get another bid,,, on anything !! , because you can not be trusted.

Seller Comment: People bid on auctions like these. MY ISP was not at fault at all. Dave is welcome to take me to small claims or whatever he chooses. I have already said many times, when TM gives me those conditions which they did not meet back to me and DAVE STILL WINS the auction, he's welcome to the phone. I undertand DAVE is a victim here, but so am I. He's not a victim of me, but of TMs Failure. He was bidding head to head with other bidders in the final minutes, then.. WOW.. they're all gone.. Why's that

Seller Comment: petrina not sure why you insist on sabataging my auction, but you have just put yourself in a funny position. You guys say I broke out of a "legal & Fair" trade? Are you going to pay me $900 for this phone then?
8:53 pm, Thu 30 Jun
Seller Comment: If I broke out of a trade with dave which was run fairly then that means you are obligated to pay me $900 for this phone. If you pull out and say it was a TM error, then you are saying I am right in pulling out of the trade because it you not your intention and TM's error which made you bid $900 when it should have been $90.00. Which is it then, petrina?

Bidders are not able to remove their own bids. A seller has the ability to remove bids off their own auctions but only if they have a Feedback rating of 10 or more - at least 2 stars.
Authenticated members can request their bid to be removed by contacting the seller using the question and answer feature at the bottom of the auction page.
If requested within reasonable notice from the close of the auction, the seller is obliged to remove your bid. NOTE the words OBLIGED TO REMOVE.

Youve shot your self in the foot by answering to the questions with the answer "My ISP is playing up and I am unable to remove any bids sorry." as you are answering the questions, takes less time to remove a bid than to answer these questions. If anyone has problems with this Seller, hit the community watch button at the bottom and report to trade me, If enough people do this, it will be taken down until the matter is sorted.

Seller Comment: The matter is resolved when TM can give me a satifactory explaination of why things happen the way they did and compensate me for the loss of the phone, that is when I then sell the phone to Dave for the price he won it for. I agree Dave should get the phone for the price he won it for, but I do not agree I should be out of pocket for a error I did not create.

The auction doesnt offend, it is the attitude, If you put up a $1 reserve auction, wether it goes to the last minue or has 4 minutes taken off, once it hits $1 your legally bound (so trade me says) to sell it, If you knew it would get /or wanted more $$ you put the reserve higher. If your silly enough to put it up for $1 and want more and throw a temper tantrum because of 4 minutes.. dont penalise a genuine buyer, go throw the tanty at trade me.

and let me tell you something bubalovelyloves
Think about it, in that 4 mins that the server was down you MIGHT have had an extra say $10, $20 worth of bids right? BUT by not honouring the fact that Dave won the auction and being so pathetic and nasty about it all you have lost the respect from fellow TM members and THAT (since alot of us has blacklisted you) is gonna loose you more money in the future as we could have all been future buyers from you, your actions towards dave and not follow

"I only want to get what I paid for. I paid for an auction which was to end at 9.38 with an auto-extend. What I got was an auction which ended 4 mins prior because the auction was inaccessable to bidders." YET http://www.trademe.co.nz/Mobile-phones/Vodafone-network/Nokia/auction-29757071.htm STATES CLOSED AT 9.48PM - OPPPS now dont we look foolish? it closed a WHOLE 10 MINUTES LATER and USED auto extend... mmmmm

Oh and its a typo now is it? sounds convienent when that was the basis of the whole arguement *sob sob* i was cut short* yet youve been proven wrong. Dave save the 2 HMTL files and theres your proof in writing(written/eform) of your legally binding win.

As a person involved in sales and dealing with the CSA and FTA everyday, I would suspect that under law the reauction is perfectly legitimate. Any business can promote all the disclaimers they like, but no business can opt out of it's legal obligations under the CSA irrespective of the circumstances and therefore TM have met their obligations by allowing the auction to relist. The auction was an auto extend and had not run it's fuul course.

Stick to your guns on this one! Dave et al are just showing the average understanding of general legislation by NZers, and the more tantrums thrown the more I understand how much we are surrounded by idiots who are interested in looking after number 1 only.

Hi there, no question, just wanted to say that I can see why dave might be annoyed - but I personally think that you are absolutely in the right. Good luck sorting it out with TM.

Seller Comment: Many argue I should sell the phone to him, but I really don't see why I should be expected to do so as I played no part in the auction's malfunction and could do absolutely nothing to remiede the problem during the malfunction. All I could do was sit there staring at the Server 500 error screen thinking to myself, OMG this cannot be happening.

Seller Comment: My interpretation of it is that "the foundations of our contract (sale of the phone) are conditioned to that the services which the agent acting on my behalf (TM) are fulfilled fairly (based on CGA)." I am willing to take it to the test by taking this to the disputes tribunal, are you game, Dave?
11:55 am, Sun 3 Jul
Moral of the story..don't put a $1 reserve just in case someone flicks the switch on the server! and voila !you've sold a phone for $1 without wanting to. Wouldn't recommend the $1 reserve unless you were happy to sell it for peanuts. yeah you may get more hits - but hell look at the shite you're having now eh.
Lets be honest here - we'd all be peeved if our auctions were pulled mins to close! Hell that's when I do most of my selling within the final minute!
Love story gone wrong - Dave -

You are correct to list again. It is only fair to give any trader that was unable to bid before the "final whistle", another chance. Do not bend. You are right. Sorry I am unable to support you on the mb. The handwringers association block whinged to TM and I'm now banned. :) Cheers

For the sake of 4 minutes no-one could bid, how come you didn't run a one day auction instead of a one week one? I still think you have taken advantage of a hiccup that can happen in more ways than one when doing your trading on the Internet (more advantage than you think Dave was trying to take of you!).

Seller Comment: I don't see how the many many members who have chosen to blacklisted me is of any advantage. Neither do see how all of the negative publicity this auction thas brought me is of any advantage. I am sure some of the potential bidder of both auctions will choose NOT to bid because of the various comments people like yourself have entered here. Can you tell me where this "advantage" you speak of is coming from?
3:58 pm, Mon 4 Jul
Seller Comment: There was a $900 bid on the phone by one of Dave's supporters earlier, I did NOT remove that bid, they somehow got TM to remove that bid on their behalf. This should indicate to you $$$ is NOT the only thing this auction is about.
4:03 pm, Mon 4 Jul
golly gosh!, simple eh? you clicked a box when you set up the auction: Auction duration : 7 days, Did it run for this time?. No. not your fault Relist the item. TM prob not yours.
