The weird and wonderful things about online trading

The Team from Community News

Hi Auckland,

What was your best purchase on an online marketplace, like Trade Me or Neighbourly?

A 1950s aircraft fuselage could be yours after a Waiuku resident listed their "old warbird" on Trade Me.

The Royal New Zealand Bristol Freighter flew as part of the Royal New Zealand Air Force during the Vietnam War. It was then purchased and shipped to Whenuapai-Ardmore in 1978 and then sold on to a Waiuku local. The sellers purchased the land at a later date, and thus the plane.

The listing starts at $18,000 and at time of publishing, has been added to almost 900 users' watchlists.

And another website!

Jack from Ponsonby

Hi again team, it's Jack.

We also got Sports Physio NZ's website done too this week. It was so fun working with Tanya Browne, the owner of the clinic, because she cares so much about her target market of atheletic youngins which is so inspiring.

She does her best to relate to people our age which is so fun to see, that's why we had to do our absolute best to bring out her gen-Z side with the website.
