Free, and specific to the geek community, Geekzone have just launched the offers and wanted forum. Pretty self explanatory – anything tech related (or not) can be bought, sold or traded, sans commissions, at the forum.
Go to it geeks!

Actually i prefer Lixtor as trademe alternative. Forums lack the “bidding” and list “tracking” functionality of an proper auction site.
However I will keep this in fav, in case Lixtor become paid site.
No one actually bids on anything on Lixtor. I checked a whole lot of the members and none of them have sold or bought anything. I mean I put an brnad elite xbox360 console system on there for $1 reserve and no one at all bid on it.
Lixtor is pathetic… good idea (free listing) unfortunatley Trademe’s got that market already

Yea, and it is desperately trying to hold on to it:
