Beware of RIP-OFFs on Trademe
A lot of people assume that things are cheaper on Trademe - but they would be mistaken. Take the Gardena Expert Cut Secateurs (= Pruners, Shears).
Now I consider myself an honest person, and I like win-win situations where everyone is happy.
What I do NOT like are people being ripped off.
According to someone else selling these on Trademe they were $119 and they are selling them at 15% off for $101.15 (compared to which I'm selling them at 45% off)
However in reality they have an RRP of $80 (see www.mitre10.co.nz... ) so my price is still over 26% off on the RRP while THEIR'S is actually $21 OVER the RRP.
And it is the same for EVERY SINGLE ITEM that I checked from them (their Mac computers are waaaay overpriced - I observed them buying a used one cheap and having it for sale for over $500 more the next day).
And as they have nearly 4,000 (FOUR THOUSAND) feedbacks their tactics seem to work on a LOT of people - all because of the assumption that Trademe MUST be cheaper.
So don't assume that everything is cheaper on Trademe - some people just make it seem as if they are cheaper but sell it for more than the shop price.
