3:30: Credit Card Payments Problem
Our payment provider is experiencing some technical difficulties which are causing credit card transactions to fail. We are currently working with them to resolve this issue as quickly as possible.
If your credit card is declined please try again shortly. We apologise for the inconvenience.
New marinas category
We have added a marinas category to Trade Me Motors for selling marinas, marina berths and boat moorings. The fee to list in this category is $39 and you can list until sold.
No listing allowance fee for catalogue DVDs
We have removed the fee for sellers who exceed their free listing allowance when listing DVDs through our catalogue.
Your listing allowance increases as your sales increase, so successful DVD sales will continue to count towards your allowance total.
Changes to the Deer category
You can now sell deer by classified, allowing you to negotiate with buyers directly.
A listing fee of $29 now applies to selling deer by auction or classified. This brings the deer category into line with the other Livestock categories. There is no success fee in this category, and you can relist for free until sold.
Reserve fee now applies in general categories
A 25c reserve fee now applies to auctions where you choose a reserve price that is higher than the start price.
This change is designed to offer a better buying experience by encouraging sellers to be transparent about reserve prices. As a result, buyers will know that any bid has the chance to be successful.
No fee applies when you keep the reserve price equal to the start price, or when listing a car or other vehicle.
