Was sent a survey on behalf of TM. Basically to test site usability.

 

 

 

Question 1 was this. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

NONE of those will reasonably get you to sell your car!

 

Am I going crazy or have they completely lost the plot?

coffeebaron: My Trade Me?

 

 

 

You CAN get to the sell page from there, but there are CONSIDERABLY more direct routes which appear to have been omitted for a reason that escapes me.

Haha, are you sure it's a legitimate link?

It looks fishy to me.

Spelling error, Trademe Apps?, FOOTER?, no one I knew received this survey.

It's a legit (although poorly constructed survey). Most likely a lowly or unpaid marketing intern... sorry, I couldn't resist.

 

The link in the email redirects out to a survey hosted on optimalworkshop.com

 

It looks like TM are looking to see who uses these categories heavily, as I also got one about Boats. I think they are considering some re-jig of their search categorisation in that area and it would appear also across the board.
