There's a seller on TradeMe called fastkiwi1 (Warkworth area) and I'm interested in some stuff he's got. The response to prior questions hasn't inspired total confidence to buy unseen, but maybe I'm just being unduly picky (it happens), because he has good feedback, on the whole.

Has anyone got any experience of the seller? (Or if you're a member on here tell me I'm a picky twat and we'll go from there.)

Cheers - Chasio

Edit - The bastard title can't be edited and it should be "Anyone bought stuff from 'fastkiwi1' on TradeMe?".

No experience with him but similar experience with others. There's all sorts on TM.

If its something you need at a good price, the seller TM account has been around a while and is AV'd with reasonable feed back....well the risk is less. Bad communication means the guy is probably unorganized (lots are) but may still be an honest trader.

I generally look at any negative feedback and see if there is a trend....he don't like posting to remote locations, cant get motivated to go out of his way to complete the sale....not as described is a deal breaker.

Thanks and yep, my hunch is that he's actually a good sort. I'm just hoping for some corroboration, really!

I bought some 2nd hand rotors off him a few years back, fair price and condition, i'd buy from him again.

This caught my attention because i'm pretty sure he and I where bidding against each other on ebay for some yz490 cases...

Good feedback, thanks. Always good to hear after a bit of time has passed.

For what its worth - as you dont know me- I know him and the ol bastard is alright.
I have known him for years too and raced against him. Dont share a room with him. He snores like a chainsaw on steel.
