I see iboats has a classified section for boats, but not parts. Where's the best place to sell something? Ebay? I could try craigslist, but I'd prefer not to get any more scammers sending me mail.

I want to sell a couple sterndrive parts, they probably weigh 40-50 pounds total.

Ebay, Ive been selling parts on there for years.
If you aren't signed up it is really easy to get going.
Just don't outprice yourself, see if what your selling is already there and what people are getting and set your price in line with that.
Like I said I have been on Ebay for years, they have all my bank info, never had a problem, bought everything from a motorcycle to boat parts, sold a bunch too.

i agree ebay, just besure the base price covers the posting cost. it's also best to get a shipping estimate from ups, etc. i also recommend http://www.freightcenter.com/ i have gotten the best rates from them, extremely customer service minded. Ally, is a great representative. i've been doing this for 4 years, buying and selling. parts to complete packages, even sold a package to a guy in South America.

Another vote for ebay. Largest market for the least money.

e-bay is good if you don't mind packing and shipping.... Craigs list is good too but use alt e-mail just for that..... also you can ask for a key word in the subject line to weed out spam.
