    I am sorry to say that I think your stuff will likely sell for less than $100.00

      "I am sorry to say that I think your stuff will likely sell for less than $100.00"

      Likely a lot less, so after the eBay fees it's hardly worth it. The trouble with used parts is they are likely to be very little different to what's on the car now so that makes them worth "nothing". Only when you need to replace something bent or broken are you likely to be a buyer. I suspect that most of us here have the pack rat syndrome and have a box or three of similar parts. I know I do.
      Spending a couple of evenings cleaning and polishing so they photograph well may, just may, get you a little more.
      If the rheostat in the light switches works properly there may even be a buyer here. Selling the 4 switches individually should make more than $20 IMO.

        Yeah, it's sad, but the normal parts are not worth very much. I have at least two spare sets of all those parts you list. You'd be better off offering them with your sale car, or hanging onto them until demand comes back up to supply.

        Consider that I've managed to pick up two of the "rare" Bahco-Volvo wrenches for $10.00 each recently, and that I just scored a complete AC setup (normally going for $350.00) for just $30.00. Lucky as all get-out, but bad news for those of us with a garage full of spare parts.

        I sense that an economic corner has been turned in eBay.
        People are less willing to bid on stuff and those of us still buying are getting rock-bottom deals.
