Thanks people

yeah probably not the best title aye! sorry!

Yeah my idea, me and a mate just launched on Tuesday

Thanks for your feedback

Have you asked one of the mods/admin/committee if you could advertise your business on here first?

Yeah I asked - was told single posts haven't been discussed with the other mods - damn now that i think about that i may have taken that the wrong way - i have told him he can delete it if it is not ok. Sorry - i am happy to remove it if i shouldn't have done this

Yeah we have a feedback system (way better than trademe's ) and a verification system

Thread is fine by me.

It's a really good idea. Best of luck with your venture.

Payload? or are you saying they are similar names?

Thanks for all the support. Once/if i can afford I'll shout a NZhondas track day!

Payload? or are you saying they are similar names?

are you familiar with your whole site...

For your success fee payments we use Paypal™ - one of the largest and most easily recognised online payment gateways. You can choose to top up your account either by credit card or by Paypal account, and at no time do we store your credit card details or other personal payment information.

haha oh yes, it is just a start until we can afford better!

so whats stopping someone just taking the stuff you are sending and not dropping it off?

payload.co.nz is a random dead Mitsubishi link?

I take it, its a similar idea to what they have in the UK where its kinda of like a reverse auction to see who can offer to move goods from point A to B for someone for the cheapest price?

Could get exploited a bit by people moving illegal stuff i.e stolen parts / drugs etc.

Cool idea though hope it works out

The same thing that is stopping trademe members not keeping the goods you have just paid for! we also have 3 types verification system and a feedback system with other verification opportunities there. read this http://www.payload.co.nz/safer_communities.aspx

cheers

Why is every payload.co.nz a dead Mitsubishi link for me?

You must be using a very old browser, maybe at work or something? Clear your cache or download chrome - it looks much better on chrome anyway. But this is something we are working on

We have not seen any other ideas like it, including UK - there are some over there but they are about freight/courier companies whereas we are about people like you and me, who just have personal transport and who go places with some spare room in the back. In addition, we don't have classified listings, once you create a listing our site automatically matches you with any other listings in your defined area around your origin, destination and along your route. I encourage you to sign up ($10 free credit for a month) and create a trip listing to see how it all works.

Lets hope not - we will be watching closely though - just remember what you describe could happen with a courier company too


Thanks for all your questions and feedback

I now only by stuff off trademe that I can pickup and pay for in person.

Definitely nothing like what trade me has!!! take a look www.payload.co.nz

Very cool idea dude. Best of luck with it
