• To Sell on eWreckers™, you must have a Seller's Account, this is different to Member Account. A Member Account is for users that want to buy only, a Seller's Account contains extra information and a verification process, this is a security measure to protect users. Becoming a seller is a once off process, once verified and approved, it remains as a permanent status.
• To become a Seller, click the "Start Selling" button in the user menu (the user menu will only show up after you have logged in as a member)

• Have a photo with your listing, one image is worth a thousand words, we let you post one free photo.
• Make sure the photo is clear.
• Ensure the item is clean, the better the item looks, the more chances you have of selling.
• Be reasonable with postage charges, use Australia Post's shipping calculator to determine the shipping cost.
• Be reasonable with the price you put on the item, and check similar items for reference.

• When a Member chooses to become a Seller, they will have to get verified. Verification is to ensure that the sellers are who they say they are. There are two options for verification: one is by phone and the other by SMS.
• If a seller chooses the phone option, an eWreckers™ representative will call the number you've provided before activating your account.
• If SMS is chosen, the system will send an SMS notification with an activation code to the mobile number you've provided, you will then enter the code in the field provided and a confirmation notice will appear on the top of the page to let you know if it is accepted.
• Phone and mobile numbers are unique and cannot be re-used, once you have submitted a phone number the system will remember it as unique and will not let you use the same number for other accounts.

Bulk Listing feature lets you list more then one item simultaneously, below are the steps to Bulk Listing.

• Download "Category" list and "Part Category" list- this lets you view the names of the categories available when filling out the template, in order for the bulk listing to be sorted correctly within the database, the names of the categories MUST be typed exactly the same as the names of the categories in our database, and this includes spaces. So if you put a "Space" between words that don't have a space, it will not work.*Example* The "Cars&Passenger Vehicles" Category has no space between "Cars "ampersand &" and "Passenger". If you type "Cars & Passenger Vehicles"with spaces between the "Cars the "the ampersand &" and the "Passenger", the system will return an error, also, misspelling words will return an error, however, capital letters are not important.

  We reccomend that you Copy from the category lists and Paste into the import template as oppose to typing it in

• Download Import Template- The import template, is the excel spreadsheet containing all the fields in the single listing form, only instead of listing one item at a time, you will use one row per item, fill in the appropriate information in it's respective box, for example, in the "Title" field enter the name of the part that you wish to sell, and so forth. When you're done entering the information about an item, move on to the next row to enter another item, and so forth.  You can now use the category list print out you've printed in step one to find out the name of the part categories, and category, Please Note! The name of the categories MUST be exactly the same as the name on our database[see point one above.
• You can use the sample table as a reference to help you fill in the import template, the reference table shows you exactly what type of information to put in each field, just click "Sample Table" to view the instructions, once you've done it once or twice, you'll be familiar with it, and you won't have to repeat this step again.
• Once you've finished entering the items information to the spreadsheet, you'll need to save the filled spreadsheet onto your computer as a Tab Delimited Text Document, to do that, select "Save as " from the File menu, when a window pops up asking you where to save it to, make sure that "Tab Delimited" is selected in the "Save as Type" drop menu, and click Save. Make sure you remember where you saved it to.
• *Note* :If you don't have the time to do it in one sitting, you may save the template as an Excel Document, and continue at another time, once you've finished, save as "Tab Delimited" document before uploading back to eWreckers™.
• The last step is to upload the saved document back to eWreckers™,to do that, click the "Browse" Button found under "Step 5" in your "Bulk Listing" page, if you can't see it, just click the link "Upload your import template" which is the 5th step. When you click the "Browse Button, a window will pop up, point to where you saved the Tab Delimited text document, and once selected, click the "Upload Import File" button.
• All the information in the text document will now show at the bottom of the page as Pending Items, check the box next to each item, that gives you another chance to make any last minute changes, when you're ready, click "Submit" to upload it to eWreckers™
• Note* The template MUST be saved as a "Tab Delimited" document, or it won't work
• You must type in the Category name and Part Category name EXACTLY the same way it is in our database.
• When typing information into the spreadsheet, it sometimes looks like you are typing over other cells, and once you hit "Tab" key, the cell will close, but the letters seem to go over other cells, this is NOT a problem, and is normal in Excel.

To list one item at a time, just click the "Add Item"link, select the "Item Type" whether a Part or a Complete Item, and follow the drop menus in the user friendly form. The Title field is the name of your item eg Carburetor, Door handle, etc.. Select a category the item you're selling belongs to, for instance, if you're selling a Carburetor that belongs to a Car, select the "Cars and Passenger Vehicles" category, the Make field will then pop up, select the make the Carburetor belongs to, once a Make is selected, the Model drop menu will show, select a Model from the list showing.

NOTE* If either the Make or Model don't show in the list, select "Other" to type in the Make and/or the Model you need

What Are the Confirmation Links?Confirmation Links are the links within the "Status" box next to an item Bought or Sold. With those links you confirm that a step in a transaction has been complete. To see the links hover the mouse over "My Items" the menu will expand, select Items Bought or Items Sold. If you sold an item, it will show in the Sold Items folder, look in the Status box to check the stage the transaction is in.

How to use the Confirmation Links-After buying or selling an item, the item will get indexed in "My Items" respectively, so a sold item will be indexed in the "Sold Items" folder etc'. Next to each item sold or bought, there will be a link highlighted in blue in the "Status" box, click the link to confirm that the action required for that particular transaction has been completed.

Once you click the link , an email will be sent to the other party to inform them of this ,so for example, if you paid for an item you bought, click the "Payment Made" link, an email will be sent to the seller advising them that you have paid for the item, and that they should check it and confirm "Payment Received", the buyer then gets sent an email advising them that the payment has been received. The seller then sends the item to you, and he or she will click the "Item Sent". The Buyer then gets an email telling them that their item has been posted out to them. Once the buyer receives the item, they will click the "Item Received" link and the Feedback link will then show which will be the last step for that transaction
