Trademe Saved Searches

Recommended Posts

Hi guys. As someone who buys and sells alot of stuff on TM. I have multiple saved searches. 35 or so emails a day.

What is some of the best search combos you've saved to find unicorns?

Besides most BMW key words and nomenclature, The one that brings the most unicorns is

My mates have also saved searches in "other" in the brand models. As guys misslist cars or cant find their exact models. This helps me find deals other people have skipped over.

535is up to 1995 is the only one I really pay attention to.
Unfortunately there is a bunch of people also watching and I have had good cars snaked from under me multiple times.

I feel like the search options don't always capture detail like they used to... Seems people enter their rego and just go with whatever the lazy border data was. I'm looking for a e46 coupe at present and often find them listed in 330i or 325i - not 330ci or 325ci. Even searching by number of doors doesn't seem to work...

Slightly off topic but did you have a punt on the registered X5 at Manheim salvage Chch last week?

All my saved searches are configured for specific rare cars I'm looking for. 

For example, I have >3.5L, manual, Volkswagen which will tell me if either of the other 2 remaining manual Passat W8s get listed for sale. 

I suppose the key is trying to capture the key details of the car in the most generic way possible.

Nah I did see it but have enough semi-broken BMW's on my plate to want any additional ones 😄 Did you see what it went for?

I saw that low km auto wagon W8 here last week. It was pretty cool

Yeah i have manual cars, in specific brands and years all over the place. Goal is to find deals before they are gone. Many good deals are gone in a day.

No, i missed the end - probably for the best as the last price i seen was $850 which was tempting
