Where would I find these?

Is there a rule about Trade Me listings? That's all I really want to know about hehe.

Thanks!

I can understand it if was business listings through Trade Me, but I think it's a bit harsh for general listings that people have!

Yeah that buy/sell section rocked!!  Even if we had a swap/giveaway section now, that'd be a bit of alright.  My guess is it's all to do with people paying to advertise here and then others getting free advertising by putting up a TM link... but dag nab it I miss those!

I'll pass your feedback on. The decision to get rid of the Buy/Sell board was because it was being abused by people advertising their businesses without prior permission, and we found that general members wanting to sell stuff preferred to use Trade Me.

that'd be great. I would totally rather sell my baby things/maternity gear to people on here than on TM, mainly to avoid fees!

maybe there should be someone that can monitor that for you guys? BAGS NOT!!!!

I'd prefer to sel/swap my old stuff on here - that way I know it's going to a good home

Same! And more often than not, if I'm selling it to a friend, then I'll sell it cheaper than on TM. Such a shame that my friends are missing out

I always preferred to offer it on here first then go to TM if there was no interest. I like being able to sell to people I know and of course avoiding TM fees was a huge bonus!!

perhaps bring back the buy/sell/trade section with a sticky at the top that says "no commercial trade"?

...and an explanation of what is commercial and what isn't?  Like - selling something you've made (to sell) - commercial, or not?
