    how the hell Trade Me lets a loser like that keep trading is a complete mystery

    Clearly the Aussie owners of the business are more than happy to leave idiots like that on there.

    I have blacklisted him just in case he ever tries to deal with me!

    I buy and sell a lot of things on TM and so far I've had only one or two deals go bad.
    Also when selling things on TM you don't have to put up with the type of trolling so many on this site get sport from.
    You just don't answer their question then black list the clowns on the spot.
    I seldom get repeats when they can't repost on my auctions,,,funny that.

    Ask for confirmation of when you can expect your money...

    If you don't get it - tell them you are relisting.

    tow bar or not whatever - but payment details should at the least be sorted up front.

    Thank you come again

    You've got yourself a live one there Weta. hope it all goes according to plan mate, these things dragging on are a real pain.
    Good luck.
    Mark, usually three days for payment to be received, then a note to buyer, hey wtf and then relist and Black list as well as Neg feedback.
    Don]'t (as if! ) hold back, give em both barrels.
    You can change it once.
    Every day above ground is a good day!:

    I like the way you all think...
    Like I said, I dont use TM that often so not that au fait with the protocol.
    I have bought several things and sold several things over 8 years or so.

    I want the thing gone from the house ASAP! I have already bought its replacement and have to wait until this one is gone to get it delivered. Needless to say, I am impatient to have my brand new shiney table and chairs in my dining room and not on display in a store. Interestingly enough the negative feedback this trader has is about the same thing. Non payment/pickup/contact regarding the purchase.

    Got a text back saying he was ''trying to organise a car with a tow bar''
    No money has been forwarded so as far as I am concerned, the item is still not sold?
    I text him again say that I have the option of relisting the item on Tuesday....no response.

    Question is...how long is a reasonable wait for payment/collection?
    I didnt read the whole thread, but if i require money quickly, I tend to state in the auction that payment is required within xx days of auction finish, that these are the terms of sale, if you cant meet these, dont bid.
    Really you shouldnt bid at all if you dont have money in the bank, and as soon as i win, I pay immediately, unless I have made an arrangement with the seller prior to the end of the auction.

    Seven days, relist it. If he comes up with the money before it sells the second time then pull the auction (make sure you put a note on it to say it may be withdrawn).

    I always work on 3 days. No need to involve TradeMe, just make it clear it will be relisted if they piss around. That way you get to give them a negative feedback and sell it to someone else.

    Whoa!? the dude just rang me.... HANK58 on trade me- real name David- sends his emails as Jennifer Griffin! griffinjennifer@windowslive.com

    He won my auction using Buy Now and then called me and told me that his daughter pressed Buy Now and he did not have the money for another month and could I wait for a month? After I explained to him that Buy Now means BUY NOW. he unleashed a tirade of abuse at me and swore the air blue with expletives!

    And on to the blacklist he goes... He's just another lying sack of shit that deserves to be spat on.

    What's his phone number?

    yeah!.... drop him a line...... 0276307151

    Oh - and when you read his feedback, you see that two other people have complained of him using the exact same tactic of "my daughter pressed Buy Now and can you wait a month for the money?"

    That's a different story then, give them until a week after the auction finished to front up and take it away, if not then relist with a buy now the same as their winning bid, clearly stating it is to be gone within 3 days.

    Kind of looks like he is buying and hoping to on sell before he has to front up with the money, and dicking you around for a month in the meantime....

    Checking feedback is a good thing, and even better is when someone is bidding on one of your auctions, and you get asked a 'question' from another member on another auction warning you not to deal with them
