APS & EBAY AUSTRALIA SERIES Building a Strong Foundation for eBay Success as a Seller

Written By Georgia Carver

A successful eBay store for auto recyclers starts with the right foundations. In this episode of the APS & eBay Australia podcast series, Chris, Gary, and Georgia discuss what it takes to set up your eBay store for success.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

1. Get the Basics Right

  • A well-set-up account leads to smoother operations and better sales performance.

2. Listing Optimisation: How to Get Found

  • Strong listings improve search visibility and sales.

  • Titles should be 65-80 characters and include make, model, part type, and MPN.

  • High-quality images are essential—buyers rely on them as they can’t see the part in person.

  • Include item specifics

  • Think like a buyer when creating listings—use relevant keywords and details.

3. Vehicle Compatibility: A Must for Auto Recyclers

  • eBay’s My Garage lets buyers save vehicle details and only see compatible parts.

4. The Power of Video in Listings

5. Warranties Increase Buyer Confidence

  • Offering a warranty reassures buyers and increases conversions.
