    Selling cats and other core parts

    Looking for advice on selling cats and other cores off cars. I buy 2 or 3 cars a month and I have 50 or so cats saved up from others. I sell parts like doors, fenders, and other parts but always have lots of stuff I think could sell.

    Any advice on how others sell their stuff would be appreciated. I mostly sell my stuff on Facebook groups and craigslist. Im from eastern oklahoma by the way.

    Ebay helps to advertise, they have a classifies section. Youtube videos proving it runs helps. I had have several buy engines just on a youtube video of it running, sent cash via paypal, and picked up. No complaints.

    Ebay is another place to sell cats. Or look on google, there is a couple online places that will buy higher than most middle men. Because the middle men sell to them.

    Apparently my "middle man" sells to them and they give higher prices to high volume. I bet if you took pics of all 50 cats and sent them those pics, they will offer higher than on the list.
