		<description>Hi Matthew. Generally speaking, if you meet all these conditions:

1. Buy a &quot;personal, domestic, or household&quot; item for your personal (non-business) use
2. For a fixed price (i.e. on a &quot;Buy Now&quot;)
3. From a seller who is &quot;in trade&quot; (not a one-off seller, like a family selling their bike, but a regular dealer / shop / importer / etc)

[all of those things]
then the Consumer Guarantees Act WILL usually apply. That means you have a number of rights against the seller (which cannot be contracted out of). See sections 5 to 13 of the Act in particular: http://www.legislation.govt.nz/act/public/1993/0091/latest/DLM311053.html</description>

		<description>Hi, thanks for the article. What applies when an item is bought through an online auction site (like Trade Me) but at a fixed price, e.g., a fixed price offer or a &quot;Buy Now&quot; ?</description>

		<description>Cheers mate. Good article thanks. I guess the rule is Buyer Beware on Trade Me.</description>
