01 — The challenge

Auto parts has the highest demand on eBay and the highest operational bar: fitment compatibility, brutal return rates when parts don't match, and buyers who message at midnight. Most stores fail here on ops, not demand.

02 — Our strategy

Treat fitment as the product. Every listing ships with complete compatibility tables (eBay Parts Compatibility), every SKU is cross-checked against distributor catalogues, and a dedicated parts team handles pre-sale fitment questions before they become returns.

03 — Execution

  • 2,400+ listings with full eBay Parts Compatibility tables
  • Pre-sale fitment desk — wrong-part returns cut to 2.1%
  • 8 US parts distributors integrated with live stock feeds
  • Promoted Listings Advanced on high-ticket SKUs with proven ROAS
