Dreadful change to DHL loosing customers!!

I have used Tradera happily for nearly a decade but for some reason they have decided to switch to DHL postage outside the EU. This makes purchasing now prohibitively expensive. Most of the time the shipping now costs more than the item purchased. DHL also routinely open, unpack and inspect all items so fragile things are at risk! They have opened every package I have received since the change. PostNord was reliable and reasonably priced, there was no problem it didn’t need fixing. I will purchase elsewhere from now on! I’m sure I’m not the only customer put off by this stupid change! If it was an option alongside regular post, that would be fine but it now seems it’s exclusive, which prices Tradera out of the market entirely. Even Auctionet who use FedEx are better because it’s cheaper and they don’t open your parcel!!

Worst selling app

Definitely do not sell with this. Customer service is awful.

Verification process update

Please update app for the verification process to go through. It hangs on for a long time and not going through.

Thank you.

Fehlender markt für die EU

Wir deutschen würden die app gerne verwenden aber es gibt einfach niemand der in deutschland Baden-württem Berg sich befindet und somit unbrauchbar

Dauert alles ewig

Ich warte seit Wochen darauf daß mein Geld zur Verfügung steht. Das Paket ist schon beim Kunden angekommen. Als ich Tradera gefragt hab meinten die "in paar tagen" wird das freigegeben. Das dauert alles viel zu lang.

Good app, but buyer protection on the platform is weak

The app works well, but buyer protection is very limited for private sales.
I purchased an item listed as “defective” that was actually previously opened, missing components, and damaged in ways not shown in the seller’s photos.

Despite submitting clear evidence, Tradera dismissed the case because the item was marked as defective.
Users should be aware that undisclosed manipulation is not covered under Tradera’s protection.

Non-functional customer support

Unable to create an account with no explanation why. No functioning customer support to resolve - they have a chat function but it doesn’t work (error on trying to load it on multiple different devices) and no other avenue of contacting them. First time in a long time I haven’t been able to simply register for an app/service.

Great Marketplace. Unfortunately pay by paypal from Germany is catastrophic

Frustrating

Automatic filtering and translation prevents you from finding what you are looking for. Stop trying to think for us and allow the user to decide what they want!!
Items arrive in email search but they are not shown when searching on the app. I want to buy stuff, stop making it difficult for me to find them, please! Photo analysis/ matching is very poor.

Foreigner issue

So if someone not from EU but they have legit residence permit, it’s not acknowledged; home country Passport is also not acknowledged although it’s listed in the list; if you have EU drivers license, that’s ok somehow .

Parts.

Good page and hope to find more needed parts soon.

Can No Longer See How Many Hearts A Listing Has

They removed the ability to be able to see how many people have hearted an object or listing. This makes it difficult to know just how much an item is recognized and relevant to others at the moment and for how long will remain on the app until it is sold.

I think that's a dumb implementation. You want people to see how many others are interested in an item, don't you? That keeps people's interest in said item at an all time high - lesser for items without as many saves and more for items with higher numbers.

People like to save things that are on high demand - even if they don't particularly want or need it normally.

Bring back the numbers.

Response from developer

Hello! This is an intended change so only the seller can see how many times an object has been hearted. We have found that this will better help with sales in the long run. We appreciate your feedback though! Have a good day! Kind regards, Traderas Customer Service

Purchases

From USA. I am unable to message seller with my address for shipping. The only way is to put it in the review. It states I must verify at Tradera, but there is no link to do this and I am unable to find it on Tradera. com. This makes it very difficult. Thanks Jim

Good to trade

Good to buy and sell wide range of items

Tradera

Doing small business with people from Sweden beautifully and safely. Great. Greetings Steffen from Germany

App has bug

Fix slow or never fixed, never! Emailed many times complained the problem, got same answers and never solved the problem

Excellent sales platform

A great user interface, flexible language choice and good range of sales tools. Personally, I would like to sell multiple quantities in single auctions and different types under one auction. Otherwise very pleased with the product and service!

Broken app...

Newest update broke the app on my iPhone 13 Mini iOS 15.0. Had to revert to the previous version, please fix! Edit 29/9: Still not launching, last working version 3.102. Edit 1/10: Update 3.113.1 finally fixed the startup crash for me! Edit 3/10: Update 3.113.2 now broke the app and UI is all messed up (no crash though). Edit: 7/10: 3.114 finally fixed the crashes and UI-issues. Edit: 8/10: New revision/hotfix for 3.114 broke the app UI again...this is getting annoying. EDIT 12/10: New version 3.115 works on first launch but exiting the app and relaunching it and it's still back to the broken UI/app.
