I came here to say this. TradeMe, New Zealand’s homegrown eBay, charges ridiculous amounts to sell items. And essentially zero customer service.

They have cornered the market in auto and housing (including rentals) but are losing out on general goods. I know a lot of people who don’t even bother looking at TradeMe anymore to buy, let alone sell.

I can’t remember when I last logged into my TradeMe account.
