New up front shipping info

Know when it's coming, know what it costs.

We've made shopping even easier

To help make shopping on Trade Me a breeze, we've added a new feature to listings you see on site. 

Many search results now display shipping costs and expected delivery times to your preferred delivery location. 

These are always estimates – if shipping costs are a little different than expected, or an item doesn’t arrive within the estimated time frame, reach out to the seller.

Top tip: updating your preferred delivery location will help provide more accurate estimates.

FAQs

Why can I see this on some listings and not others?

It's new and only available for some sellers right now. Eventually, you’ll experience it more frequently from our in-trade sellers.

How do I set up my preferred shipping location?

Go into the refine menu, select shipping, then go to shipping location in the menu and select your preferred location.

Am I covered by Buyer Protection if it doesn’t arrive in the expected timeframe?

The expected delivery time is an estimate and not a promise, but Buyer Protection will still apply for items that don’t show up.

How can I add this info to my listings as a casual seller?

This is a feature for our in-trade sellers. Right now it’s not available to casual traders but we’ll let you know if this changes.
