As I approach my 83rd birthday, it's past time I should start disposing of
GMC parts. Since I've always been a "hoarder" of those, I don't really
know where to list them (once I compile the inventory). Where would Y'All
suggest I list such things as the Holley throttle body I replaced in my
Howell/EBL system with one from a Chevy truck?

I’d like to see any parts list posted in the Forum classified section.

Ken,

I've only heard tell of your shipping container stuffed with parts, so I can only imagine the amount of work that would be involved just dealing with all of the email and inquiries.

Posting the list here, of course, and Billy will get the word out to the Facebook crowd. Besides Craigslist for local stuff that you don't want to pack and ship, there's OfferUp which is an easy to use and free app. I've had some success with it.

eBay has sent out email recently saying that they are now requiring sellers to link their bank accounts, with eBay receiving payment and depositing money in the seller's account...and I believe also automatically deducting seller's fees. I don't have the full details but it's a fairly big change and one that has me reconsidering using eBay.

While I'm some 8 yrs Ken's Jr., I too have a collection of GMC stuff that for whatever reason I chose to hoard. They are squeezing me out of my garage and invading my basement. What I am going to do is fill my 5 X 8 trailer with this stuff and tow it to the GMCMI fall Chippewa Falls convention. IMO, the rally and conventions are a natural disposal source for most of these items. It's to bad that the Patterson convention this spring has been cancelled cuz that would be a great disposal site for Kens items. Especially if a list of the items could be published with possible presale and delivery to the convention for buyers. Bringing items to rally, allows buyers to look over the items and illuminates the tedious packaging and mailing/shipping of awkward items. I'm also hoping to bring some items to our local rally this spring. (depending on cancelation from Covid) We've got this natural disposal source, let's use them to the advantage of both parties.

According to the gmcmi website it looks like 2021 Patterson rally is still on.

OH, well maybe not. Must be thinking of our fall conference. In any case, the spring conference and any of our local rallies are a great place to dispose of OUR unwanted items and allow them to go to someone who needs it. Just say'n.
