@223nut,

Police forms are not required for a TradeMe purchase when you pick up the item yourself, so the TradeMe system adds a recorded verification step for local deals too.

I agree re TradeMe staff's poor knowledge. Like traders being forced to sell a standard SMLE mag as "5-round magazine". Unbelievable!
