Im starting to part out my car and have been doing most of it on vehicles specific forums but it seems to be going a lot slower than I anticipated. I was thinking about listing everything up on ebay and then just re-listing it if it doesnt sell. My question is, what happens if it doesnt sell the first time? do I have to pay any fees? Do I have to pay a re-listing fee if I re-list it? Anyone familiar with their operation?

There is #1 - a listing fee EVERY time you list a item  
#2 - There is a Final Value Fee ONLY if the item sells.

There are 2 fees involved.

Relist and listing fee is the same.

Include a big note in ALL your auctions that says “Parting out the ENTIRE car” “Many parts available” “Contact ME”

If you re-list the same item, using the relist button after it doesn’t sell, you get your listing fees back IF it sells the second time around.

Yeah, they really nail you twice that way. I use flat rate shipping and make my Paypal fees back that way.

Do a buy it now for 0.01 and charge like $30 shipping, I have done it a 100 times. Ebay makes 0.00 off my auctions. : )
