Changes to the Top Seller programme

Written by Trade Me staff at 12:00am, Mon 31 Aug 2009

Pay Now transactions now incur a fee of 0.95% for Top Sellers. This is due to the increasing use of Pay Now and the bank fees we incur on these transactions.

For all other sellers, Pay Now transactions remain at 1.95% of the total purchase price.

All auctions that were due to close between 9:05pm Monday and 5:00am Tuesday have been extended by 24 hours. More...

Unfortunately Trade Me was offline for 15 minutes between 6:55pm and 7:10pm. Any auctions that were due to close during this time were extended by one hour.

We are looking into the cause and apologise to those affected members and will do whatever we can to prevent this happening again.

Trade Me was unexpectedly offline for 20 minutes from 5:40pm to 6:00pm due to a fault with one of our database servers. Any auctions that were due to close during this time were extended by one hour.

We’re extremely sorry for the inconvenience this would have caused and we are currently looking at how we prevent this from reoccurring.
