Thread: Spotting fakes on Trademe

Reading feedback can be a bit of a laugh - but only the ones where the wheels fall off are worth reading.

I've reported the auction to Leupold and told Trademe I have done so.
That normally gets Trademe's attention.

Shouldnt that guy be "in trade" as well, looks like he buys and sells a lot of firarms on there. Are there similar rules for selling firarms as cars? ie more than X cars a year and you need to be licensed?

5 Dealers to be licensed

No person shall—

(a)
in the way of his business, sell any firearm, airgun, pistol, or restricted weapon; or

From here, Arms Act 1983 No 44 (as at 01 January 2016), Public Act – New Zealand Legislation

Yeh, looks like withdrawn by the seller not by Tardme. What a piss poor situation and a low life seller. Unanswered questions now visible are pretty entertaining.

Never ceases to amaze me just how stupid people can be to think that they can get away with shit like this. How to destroy your reputation and have it preserved on the internet for eternity 101.

I'm amazed it never got pulled by trademe. I reported it, as did a whole bunch of people I'm sure.

Thanks for derailing my sale guys
