List inexp. stuff first to build a good rep.! List accurately & ship very fast! List for 7days W/ photos, many times the activity is at end of auction.

go to eBay and follow the links to Sell your stuff, it will walk you thru the process of registering, etc and then you go to the link to sell.
3 tips;
1.) good pictures
2.) key words in your listing title ( corvette, is a good keyword)
3.) do a little research on past items to see approx how much your part is
worth, you don't want to ask too much money nor too little

As mentioned pics help alot.

I try to have auctions end on Sunday nite about 6 pacific time. With "proxy" bidding it's probably not a big deal..but I think there is some last minute "auction fever" at the end so I like to end when the audience is most probably the greatest.

Remeber to post that shipping is added to price ;)

As said before, GOOD pics are a MUST. Also include a very well worded description. Make sure it is absolutely accurate and everything important is mentioned.
