A makeover for the menswear category
We’ve made a change to the way search results are displayed in the Men’s department of the Clothing & Fashion category.
Starting today, when you’re in this category you’ll see a new visual page layout when searching and browsing. The appearance of each listing depends on our improved range of promotional products available in this category:
• Basic: Small image in search results.
• Gallery: Medium image in search results (2x larger than Basic) and higher position in the category.
• Feature: Large image in search results (4x larger than Basic) and best position in the category.
• Feature Combo: Highlights listing and includes all benefits of Feature. More...
The Starship Spring Clean 2014 is under way
We're stoked to be supporting the Starship Spring Clean again this year! It's a way for us to help out one of New Zealand's most awesome organisations, the Starship Children’s Foundation and will run through the month of September.
There are 3 things involved: list an item (preferably at $1 reserve), pledge to donate auction proceeds to Starship, and then donate once the item is sold.
It’s a win-win: while cleaning out your cupboards, you’ll also be raising money for a great cause. More...
A tweak to our Terms and conditions
We wanted to let you know that we've made two slight tweaks to our Terms and conditions to bring them in line with our recently updated Privacy policy.

Ivory and other animals banned from Trade Me
We’ve made a decision to change the rules around the sale of endangered animal parts on Trade Me. The revised rules will come into effect on 17 September 2014.
The ban will affect almost all ivory sales on Trade Me. It also includes parts from animals such as red panda, gorilla, chimpanzee, tigers, lion, leopards, jaguar, cheetah, elephants, dugong, manatees and rhinoceros. All animals listed under the Appendix I of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora are captured.
We’re doing this as it is the right thing to do. We’ve consulted with a lot of experts in this area, including advocacy groups and the Department of Conservation. This move is in line with international trends. More...
