Easter Payment Delays
Unfortunately due to bank closures over the Easter holiday there will be a delay in Internet or phone banking payments appearing on your Trade Me account.
Payments made after 7pm Thursday night and Tuesday 10 April will not be processed until Wednesday 11 April.
Sorry for the inconvenience, unfortunately it is beyond our control. We hope you enjoy the long Easter weekend.
Changes to DVD category
We've made some exciting changes to the DVDs & Movies category designed to make life easier for buyers and sellers.
To place a listing sellers just need to enter the DVD title and we will automatically include all of the other details from our catalogue of over 10,000 titles. This includes cover art, genre, synopsis, director, cast, classification, etc.
Buyers can browse all of the items for sale from the new DVDs & Movies page. Listings are categorised by genre such as Drama or Action, or by other criteria such as New Releases, Top 100 and New Zealand movies. More...
Scheduled maintenance
Trade Me will be unavailable from 5:00 am Wednesday for approximately 1 hour for scheduled maintenance and upgrades. All auctions that are due to close between 5:00 am and 7:00 am will be extended by 2 hours. Saved search emails and category subscriptions will also be delayed.
We apologise in advance for any inconvenience this may cause.
