Customer service

Searching for a topic or asking our chatbot is the fastest way to get an answer. Did you know that you can perform most things under "More actions" in the list for Your purchases and Your sold? Another good idea is to try asking the buyer or seller the question in the message function, the seller knows, for example, when the item will be shipped.

We hope you want to test our feature a bit more before turning it off, but if you prefer to write all the content of the ad yourself, you can turn off the feature in Seller Settings.

The seller is the one who knows when the package will be sent, Tradera unfortunately does not have that information. You can ask the seller when the package will be sent by asking a question on the "Contact" button in the ad or on the Chat icon in the list of Your purchases. The seller has 7 days to ship the item. If the seller doesn't respond or ship within 7 days, you can report an issue with the purchase.

Remove a bid

Bidding on Tradera is binding and it is not possible to remove a bid during an ongoing auction. If you are the winner in the auction and want to cancel the deal, you need to contact the seller for approval. Please note that the seller is under no obligation to agree to cancel the purchase.

If the seller approves that the deal is cancelled, the seller must report this by selecting "No sale" under the "More actions" menu in the Your Sold list.

Lower a maximum bid If you’ve placed a maximum bid and later regret the amount, you can lower the maximum bid. Here’s how:

• Go to the listing
• Click on "Edit maximum bid"
• Enter the amount you want to lower it to

Click confirm, and the maximum bid is now updated!

Have you not received the product, is it not as described or broken?

When you have buyer protection

If you have buyer protection, you can start a case by clicking "Problems with purchases" under "More actions" in the list Your purchases. Customer service cannot start the case for you, you need to do that yourself. You can open a case within 30 days after you have paid for the order.

When you don't have buyer protection

If the seller has not responded or shipped within 7 days, report it by clicking on "Problems with purchase" under "More actions" in the Your purchases list. You can also report the matter to the police. Unfortunately, Tradera's customer service is unable to help you without buyer protection.
