Is Trademe slowly dying?

[king1]

I have recently discovered Amazon. I would never have considered it previously but when I couldn't find what I wanted on Trade Me or anywhere else Amazon had it and at the right price. The service and delivery time were also excellent. I have browsed there for other things but still am resistant to buying off such a large and growing corporation.

Temu has also taken hold. Not for me thanks.

When I go to Trade Me I want to see second hand goods. Well, I do go there for new items at times but I get annoyed seeing duplicate listings of the same new item when I'm looking for second hand. It's really boring and makes looking for what I want tedious.

at the top of the search results you can filter the list to exclude new items, filter by area etc...

I get the feeling though TM would be rather barren if they prevented duplicate listings...
