The weird and wonderful things about online trading
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.

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
