I'm fairly certain that you can't register without being based in NZ (they can tell from your IP address).

I used my brothers address and telephone number - you cant get addressed verified though, just changed it to our current address when we emigrated.

I couldn't register until I came to NZ, trademe seem to be able tell that you're using a non NZ IP address.

I emailed them and asked them to give me limited registration which they agreed to after explaining why I wanted to register... Look for rentals before emigrating.

Well I registered but didn't receive the email so I could activate the account. I emailed them and they said as I was in the UK I couldn't use the site. They have agreed that I can have restricted access for 4 weeks a month before we arrive :(
