TRADEME COURIER COSTS
Lately when I have used Trademe's own couriers' quote, I have found that often the price they quote for the buyer to pay, has increased by several dollars even when the item is sold within a few days after being listed.
This unfair practise leaves the seller paying the extra costs.
An recent example . A family member sold a clothes drying rack for $15, and the courier, Aramex, charged an extra $4.50 over the quoted price. Where is this extra cost going I wonder? Petrol has gone down lately, not up.
I think Trademe need to do a bit of spot checking.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?

Dental Implants
A successful Dental Implant Placed by Dr Martin J Cribbin at CM Dental ltd in Henderson, replacing a lower left molar which had fractured and could not be root filled.
Where there is sufficient bone the dental implant can offer a better solution than bridge work as there is no damage to the teeth adjacent by cutting them down to create space for the bridgework.
