Safer Internet Day 2015
This year, Trade Me is one of 15 organisations that work with children, young people, and everyday Kiwi internet users to get behind Safer Internet Day.
Safer Internet Day is celebrated worldwide to encourage the safe and positive use of the internet and digital technologies, especially among children and young people. Here at Trade Me, we agree and support the idea of shared responsibility for internet safety, and we work closely with agencies like Netsafe and the Police to make sure we’re doing our bit to keep our members safe.
Netsafe have heaps more information on Safer Internet Day, so head on over and get involved. For more on our take on Safer Internet Day, jump across to our Trust & Safety blog.

Redesigning the listing page - Clothing & Fashion
Last year we announced that we’re in the process of redesigning the listing page.
We've rolled out the first version of the new listing page in the Monitors and iPhone categories, and now it’s time for Clothing & Fashion to follow suit. Not everyone will see the new page at first; if you have an even member number you‘ll see the new listing page when you browse the Clothing & Fashion category. We’ll continue pulling back the curtain as we go, so don’t fret, you will get a chance to see the new design. To see your member number, head over to your My Trade Me page and look below your username on the top-right of the page.
What’s changed?
We’ve redesigned the listing detail page to make the browsing and buying experience better across Trade Me’s desktop site. There’s a fresh new look with tabbed sections for quick access to the description, Q&A, Shipping, and Payment details. More...

Have a very Happy New Year!
Selling an unwanted gift?
We've made a small, temporary tweak to the Sell process in preparation for Boxing Day.
Each year from Boxing Day we see lots of people visit the site looking for bargains among the Christmas presents that have missed the mark. We want to make these items easier to list and for buyers to find.
If you’re selling an unwanted gift, you can simply tag your item as an unwanted gift in the Sell process and it will automatically appear in searches for unwanted gifts. More...
