The weird and wonderful things about online trading

Hi Auckland,

What was your best purchase on an online marketplace, like Trade Me or Neighbourly?

A 1950s aircraft fuselage could be yours after a Waiuku resident listed their "old warbird" on Trade Me.

The Royal New Zealand Bristol Freighter flew as part of the Royal New Zealand Air Force during the Vietnam War. It was then purchased and shipped to Whenuapai-Ardmore in 1978 and then sold on to a Waiuku local. The sellers purchased the land at a later date, and thus the plane.

The listing starts at $18,000 and at time of publishing, has been added to almost 900 users' watchlists.

Todd Niall Reporter from Auckland Stuff

Free Red Dining Table

Mark from Dairy Flat - Redvale

I got this a while back for model making but didn't know until I picked it up that the top was very warped - I need a straight flat top.

I got this a while back for model making but didn't know until I picked it up that the top was very warped - I need a straight flat top.
At the moment the top is unscrewed to make it easy to carry, I'll leave it unscrewed but if you want it screwed together before pickup I'll to pop screws back in. In the picture the base is upside down so you can see the screw holes for the table top, apart from the 4 holes, the top and bottom of the base look the same.
Solid wood, looks like pine.


Oh, and the splotchy whitish look on top is dust, I should really have wiped it before taking the photo!

“As technology progresses and we move further into Industry 4.0, workers must be upskilled to keep pace with new systems and processes, especially older employees who are not digital natives, but who have invaluable experience in their fields,” says Competenz Sector Manager Jahn Vannisselroy

Competenz has developed a new micro-credential to meet the demands brought about by Industry 4.0.
