Hi.

I found a seller that has something I've been looking for a long time, but I can't even contact the person without registering for an account. And it looks like registration is limited to people who live in New Zealand and Australia.

Does anyone have an active account in Trademe?

http://www.trademe.co.nz/

So, if anyone has an account with Tradme, please PM me, and let's see if we can arrange a way to get the seller to talk to me directly by email.

A reward for the person who can help me accomplish this.

Thanks.

I tried making an account hoping I could at least contact the seller, but TradeMe requires you to become authenticated to contact sellers.

TradeMe sure has strict rules.

If anyone from New Zealand or Australia can help, please let me know.

Thanks.

Im from Australia but have never used that site before. If you have to create an account just say you live in Australia. It shouldn't be too much of a problem. Let me know if I can help.

Hi.

Yea, I tried making an account on TradeMe using a (cough cough) address in Australia.

However, even though I was successful in making an account, I still couldn't use the "ask the seller a question" function because it required me to be authenticated/verified before I could do it. I need to make a payment to TradeMe to authenticate (like by credit card or some other form of payment, it's similar to being required to verify your identity to sell on ebay).

TradeMe is really strict on rules.

A day after I created the account, I got an email from TradeMe saying they knew my account info was false, lol. So they already deactivated it.

So, yea, I need someone's help to have a TradeMe account to contact the person. The fee you have to pay when authenticating is like $10. I am willing to pay the $10 to you so you can become authenticated, so it's like a free account for you. Let me know if you can help. Thanks.

Do you have to go to school for that?

To be honest I am not comfortable opening an account with them. Im really sorry, but I don't want to use my credit card.
Cloud, I've missed you.
