Golliwogs and jolly money boxes banned on Trade Me

Written by The Trade Me team in General at 9:00am, Mon 29 Apr 2019

Today we’re announcing that from 13 May 2019, golliwogs and jolly money boxes will be banned for sale on Trade Me.

For the details of these changes, please see our updated Banned & restricted items list.
