Theres absoulutely nothing wrong with trademe. You have to know what your doing, and not just go around buying whatever from whoever

After all, a guy with 4000+ feedbacks is not likely to go out and "scam" you or sell you burgled stuff :)

Well id say get fsx Brownbox ;) You know you will need it some time, even if its not gana be your primary sim for a year or two. So get it know while you have the money, and when you have money later, spend it on addons :P

Trademe is a luck game, you can take the risk but could end up with nothing other than a great waste of time waiting for emails back and forward only to find out they don't want to sell it after all. Happend when selling a graphics card once, I brought the postage stuff then waited a week to find out the buyer "died" :lol: at least I got a chuckle out of there excuss for not continuing the sale!

I'm sure we all have our good and bad trademe stories... up to you brownbox :D

Hey BB, you could buy some addon scenery/planes for FS with that $100 rather than getting a whole new game ya know ;)

And yea, I agree with you, trademe is a pretty safe place to buy from. For those that don't know, they have a whole buyer and seller feedback star rating system which lets anyone how trustworthy each member is.

Speaking of IRD- yay, the tax year just ended :D Time to claim my rebate!

I would love to Trolly, but Ive already got all the addons I would need. Besides, I want something that will keep me busy during my spare lunch times and night times throughout the holidays :lol:
