Has anyone used this site? Doing some digging there are a lot of posts all the way up to 2009 on various sites mentioning scam artist, fraud and a few other choice words about farasha and some other usernames.

However nothing more is mentioned after 2009, besttrade appears to be owned/run by farasha going by him being the main person posting listings. Some of the feed back is questionable.

iirc an old TradeMe bulk seller that operated under a number of accounts(Sharaz1, farasha1, Computerszone) with really iffy feedback and warranty/service related complaints.

That may have changed since 2009 but I really doubt it.

Yeah thought it rung a bell.... dealt with him once via TM, product was ok and I didnt have any warranty issues to worry about, but was only afterwards I clicked onto who he was - was running about 6 diff TM accounts under different names and a lot had some really bad feedback- but TM left him alone even though he was obviously breaching their rules.

Wouldnt touch that site.... who puts up an auction for 865 days ?
