I have a handful of left over parts I am trying to get rid of from my restoration. I posted most of it on FBBO a few months ago, but still no bites on some of it. So I'm ready to post these on eBay. My question is - any of you have an opinion on good and bad times of year to sell on eBay? I guess the times when people are looking for something specific is fairly unpredictable, but in general do most of you look for parts during the holidays or would I be better off waiting to post these items in late jan or February? I only ask because eBay charges the seller whether you sell the item or not...
I'm
Not a big fan of E-Scam either, been screwed too many times, misrepresented parts... people way overpricing mostly rusty old crap it seem, when I'm looking for anything...LOL... anyways... But I'm the type, that also looks for parts year round, unfortunately or rarely anyone ever has what I need &/or even want ever thou, or it's priced like,
it's worth it's weight in gold, instead of rust... I've also even been known to look on holidays in the early mornings & evenings, after things settle down or before everyone's up while drinking my morning cup/pot of Joe... I personally think any time of year can be good, but
after the holidays would
possibly be better, there's allot of people hurting or out of work & the holidays can really stress the bank account & wallets, for allot of us poor working folks, in a crappy economy... I think if someone needs it, then it doesn't really matter what time of year it is, you try to sell... the old adage is an a$$ for every seat, a buyer somewhere for every part...
good luck with your parts sales
this time of year you can get some decent deals sometimes too, interest has waivered some, different priorities for many folks, you might try a little slightly lower asking price... unless you really firm on the prices or maybe offer to help with shipping costs... just an idea
