Brilliant.
I really appreciate bidbud, it’s ease of options and the fact you can remove a bid without alerting anybody make it the perfect platform to conduct your trade me buying and selling. I try to convince my friends to use bid bud but they choose not to, their loss I say.

Hi Leslie,
This has been asked about a lot, the problem is it goes against Trade Me's business rules so I can't add it.
Many of BidBud's features have been suggested by users though, so feel free to get in touch if you think of something else.
An excellent service
An excellent service, much better than viewing trademe's dog's breakfast listings, and having many handy additional features.

I love bidbud
I love bidbud. There's so many applications for it's use. However setting up a bid instead of the TM autobid is a fantastic option. Thanks

I’ve been using bidbud for years
I’ve been using bidbud for years, and trust it to win all my Trade Me auctions for me. Awesome site with great feature set.

Works Well.
As far as I know there is no other company offering this service so I have nothing to compare it to but I have used its service 50 times and never had a problem. The web page seems well laid out and filters can save me a lot of time searching and I like the fact that the set and forget feature means I am not tied to the computer at inconvenient times

Very helpful that Bidbud bids on behalf of you. It saves time for me so I don’t have to be on an auction to bid or track till the end. I highly recommend. Thx
