Great advice. Just sold my first car part on eBay today!

As a millenial searching for obscure and rare car parts all the time makes me appreciate your words so much! I can't count the times i went to the middle of nowhere just to get that only listed spare part on the planet from an old guy that had a whole garage full of treasure. I live in Germany and mostly search for rare parts from german car-makers that stopped existing in the 1960s or had the spare-storage burned down sometime in the 80s. There is no worse nightmare than to realize the part you need and search might just not exist anywhere anymore. eBay is huge here in Germany as well and i started to get rid of my doubled items and things you once bought to make the shipping cost worth it. Love your videos Don.

I have been doing this exact thing on eBay since 2008 I have bought so much inventory I could list for the rest of my life and not run out

slowly selling my stuff... and a lot of old Ford... and there is something for everyone ! he is right !!!

Thanks from Germany! I don't know what I would have done without ebay on my American classic cars and such great vendors as you! Appreciate your business and your service like the videos very much - they helped me out many times. Thanks again and keep on going as you are, Don!

Awesome video!!

My father had a speed shop and business since the early 80's. He passed in 2020. I am also in the parts industry so I know what stuff is and have been selling parts for my mom and making our family some good money as we wind this collection down. I have been using Facebook marketplace locally and have been doing eBay with some success and the more I sell the more fun it has actually become. But this video was great in laying it all out there specifically for car parts and will help me get after it a little more. I'm also now seeing trends and looking for things I know I can repeatedly sell so I have gotten into buy mode for certain things. But seriously thank you for doing this video. Very helpful for my journey.

You describe my situation perfectly. Health issues whisper "time to wrap it up" and liquidate all the spare parts I've collected over the years so that I don't burden others with the chore. Thanks for the great video!

Always enjoy your videos and knowledge, glad to see you back! I've used ebay for 20 years, some selling but mostly buying. One of the things that bugs me about it now is the search, so many unrelated items flood searches. Doing a simple search for something like a 67 cougar quarter glass gets you a slew of random items, like 69 caddy tail lights, 69 Camaro fuse panel, 57 ford hubcaps, magazine articles for a 70 Challenger, etc.. Seems like keywords take priority over item titles.

I just found you and I'm getting a 69 T-bird I'm going for a resto mod as time goes. You just so happen to be holding an identical front badge. Don't let the love of American muscle die people ✊🏻

Outstanding video….

Great advice! This applies to more than just car parts. Many of us have toys, comics and games from our youth that need to be liquidated too. Don't leave that stuff for your kids to deal with cuz they'll put it all in a dumpster >.

Thank you for a great video! While Ebay makes it easier to sell it still takes real time to do research to see what items are actually selling for, writing copy, packing, boxing, etc., and then deciding if it is worth your time to list and manage.

Great video as always Don . I quit EBAY when they switched to the new system but maybe will have another look .

Thanks for all of your help.

Great information. Thank you. Missed you.

Great information thank You!

Excellent video as usual. Thanks. Also, you reminded me I have some parts I need to order from your website. Be ordering soon.

This is absolute gold. Many thanks from Australia

Love it, awesome video.

Absolutely one of the best videos I've seen on KZfaq. You have done an excellent job covering what it takes and how to do it. Thank you very much !

Thanks. Great video

I'vr been selling on Ebay for years. You taught me some new things I did not know here.

Thank you for the trim tip. Thats one thing I have been going back and forth on considering wood and such inside the box. Will definitely hit up a few carpet places. Thank you

Thanks for all the online selling info!

Thank you for taking the time to do this. Any tips on getting into the used atv parts market?

Great great video. I have been selling a few mustang parts on eBay and FBMP, and this gives me a LOT of insight on what I am doing right, what I can do better, buying and pricing info, shipping, etc etc. great stuff. Thank you

Thank you!!!

Excellent video Don! I've been dreading dealing with ebay to sell off some of my late fathers stash. (You know him from many years ago) I too sold on ebay in the late 90s and early 2000s, and it was exactly as described! Plus the amount of footwork YOU as a seller had to do was daunting! Your advice and tips are extremely helpful and a bit more reassuring re-entering the ebay selling world.

Make the listing end during prime time while users are watching TV. Make the race car part listing end during the race on weekend.

Great video, thanks for the tips! Any thoughts on Buy It Now vs Auction?

Hmm maybe I should sell my 67 Cougar/Mustang cruise control set.

I have been selling classic parts on ebay and this video is very helpful. Just wondering how do you guys effectively inventory your parts that you listed on ebay?

Give as many details as you can in the details or title. It can save you time instead of answering the same questions from multiple viewers. Keep an eye out for MacGyver rigging ideas and cheap ways to source shipping materials. For instance, if you have a local Amazon returns store, they can LOVE it if you go through the piles of stuff and take the bubble wrap, empty boxes, poly bags, etc. I just fill a cart and they gladly give me bags to tote everything outside.

Did I hear correctly, “800k year gross” (24:52)? For company 10-20 ppl staff?
