Just Parts heads to the OARA Convention
JustParts.com packs its bags and heads to Toronto for the Ontario Automotive Recyclers Association (OARA) Trade Show and Convention from March 27-28, 2009.

JustParts is on the road again, this time heading down to Toronto to attend this year’s Ontario Automotive Recyclers Association (OARA) trade show and convention. In what might prove to be yet another successful outing for the burgeoning online marketplace, CEO Michael Racco is hoping to rub shoulders with some of the biggest stakeholders in the Canadian automotive recycling industry which happens to make up part of Just Parts’ target market. ‘We never pass up the chance to meet and interact with auto-recyclers. They make up a core group of the market we cater to, and we thrive on their ideas and suggestions, plus it’s a chance to get feedback on our popular parts-car selling tool that seems to have generated a lot of enthusiasm among recyclers.’ The OARA convention is the first of many events Just Parts aims to tackle as part of a busy spring 2009. Fellow OARA members and innovative recyclers can get up close and personal with Just Parts at the Renaissance Toronto Airport Hotel from Thursday March 26 to Saturday March 28, 2009.

JustParts.com Unveils the 'Parts Car Listing Tool
Looking to add to its repertoire of auto parts, tools and accessories, JustParts.com has just released its revolutionary parts car listing tool on its website. This patent pending feature enables part sellers to list vehicles sold exclusively for their parts— otherwise known as parts-cars or parts vehicles— in a minute or less.

Sellers can enter details such as the car make, model, trim, parts available, damage present, mileage and shipping methods available etc. Buyers who view these parts cars can then request individual parts from these vehicles (through the seller using a simple messaging system) or purchase the entire vehicle for their own use.

‘This is unlike any other feature out in the auto part marketplace today, and is a testament to our relentless pursuit of innovation. We’ve noticed a growing demand for parts cars as an affordable alternative source for parts, yet there has been no concrete online marketplace where part buyers and sellers could go to exclusively...until now. We hope automotive recyclers; casual and other commercial part sellers embrace this tool that was built from scratch to fill a gaping void in the parts marketplace’ offered CEO & President Michael Racco via statement.

This tool is backed by a unique international vehicle database spanning thousands of domestic and imported vehicle makes and models, allowing sellers to easily post just about any conceivable vehicle for sale on JustParts.com.

With this tool, JustParts.com is hoping to become the first exclusive auto parts marketplace that sells parts cars and with its upcoming Sellers’ Drive in the next few weeks, Just Parts is aiming to lure more parts sellers and recyclers with their inventory to match the unprecedented demand for parts and accessories they have faced for the last few months.

Parts Car - Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Parts Car listing?
A Parts Car listing allows you to create one listing for ALL the parts from your vehicle instead of creating thousands of individual listings for each part. That means you can sell parts from your vehicle (eg. alternator, engine, struts etc.) without actually creating listings for each item on JustParts.

This is an entirely new way of selling auto parts on the internet and it will save you countless hours. What could normally take you a full day to create listings for each part from your vehicle will now take you less than 5 Minutes! This is the fastest and most convenient way of selling auto parts online and is exclusive to JustParts.com.
What is the difference between Selling a Part and Posting a Parts Car?
If you choose to sell your car and truck parts, you create an individual listing for each and every part that you want to sell. Knowing that there are thousands of parts on a vehicle, creating a listing for every one of them is very time consuming and inconvenient especially if you have many vehicles for parts.

Listing parts is still a great way to sell your auto parts however, if you have a parts vehicle you would like to sell parts from, using the Parts Car Listing tool will get you selling your parts faster.
How much will it cost to post a parts vehicle?
It 100% FREE to list your parts cars on JustParts.com. JustParts.com charges a very small closing fee of 5% of the item price only for each part that you sell. For example, if you sell an item priced at $100, then the closing fee will be $5.00 ($100 x 5%).
What type of parts can I sell from my parts car?
The great thing about using the Parts Car tool is that it allows you to sell any parts from your vehicle easily. Anything from the engine and transmission, to the seats, dash knobs or the ash tray. It’s up to you. You can sell whatever parts you want as long as they are not dangerous, unsafe, illegal or a hazardous material as defined under law in your region and/or the buyer’s region.
What if a buyer requests an item that is damaged or already sold?
You simply specify that the item is not available by checking “No” under availability. The buyer will be notified that the item is no longer available.
How will buyers find my Parts Cars?
Our search tools are very smart. When buyers search for items, your vehicle listing will appear in the results. For example, let’s say that the buyer searches for an “alternator” for their “2005 Honda Civic”. Your Honda Civic would appear in the results since it may have the parts the buyer wants.

As an added bonus, your vehicle listings are regularly crawled by all the major search engines like Google, Yahoo and Microsoft Live making it easier for buyers to find your items. We’re also heavily invested in print and online advertising to drive traffic to our site to ultimately sell your items.
