Sometime ago, someone casually said they sold goods in The Marketplace.

 

I am now interested. I have never used Trade Me (for selling nor purchasing), but all my internet searches come back to Trade Me.

 

I want to sell something for a fixed price. The item is too bulky to be shipped, so the buyer would have to pick up.

 

I cannot find a site which tells me what the difference is between Trade Me and The Marketplace.

 

So, is there a difference?

nitro:

 

did you mean facebook marketplace? or something else entirely?

 

 

For clarity.

 

When I made my post I had no idea whether I was looking for:

 

'The Marketplace'

 

or the 'Marketplace'

 

The subject of my post was: 'What is the difference between The Marketplace and Trade Me ?'.

 

In hindsight, the Trade Me web site just refers to 'Marketplace'. So, I was referring to Trade Me (but inaccurately).

 

Thanks for all your posts.

 

At this stage I have no idea what I am going to do. Perhaps neither Trade Me or Facebook. It would be easier to donate the item to the local Hospice Shop (as it is not a rubbish item but may not be to the younger generations taste). That is my own preference, but not everyone agrees.
