Awesome site
Awesome site, I use it any time I'm buying from Trade Me. I've saved a lot and won auctions I'd have otherwise missed. The saved searches with lots of filters are also useful.

Bid bud is easy to use -just don’t bid on too much.
Makes Trademe much more useful.

Excellent result using bidbud
Worked perfectly.
fantastic service
