Inside why recycled auto parts are booming in Australia
Recent findings reveal eight in 10 (82%) Australian drivers are open to purchasing recycled auto parts.
“Recycled spare parts are cost-effective [...] Demand has definitely increased across the board with cost-of-living pressures.” – Pat Nguyen, Manager, S-Twins Spares, NSW.
S-Twins Spares sells recycled car parts from written-off vehicles, salvaging, testing and listing them on eBay so car owners can easily find affordable, reliable parts backed by buyer protection.
More than just an economic indicator, this trend reflects consumers’ growing shift towards recycled parts over new – keeping costs down while keeping parts out of landfill.
According to recent findings, hard-to-find parts that are found in older, rare, or discontinued vehicles, is another key factor driving this shift.
According to recent survey findings, 82% of surveyed vehicle owners were concerned about parts’ reliability or condition when asked about purchasing recycled parts online. It’s a common misconception.
"eBay builds buyer confidence with 'eBay Guaranteed Fit' ensuring parts match your vehicle, 'Pro Recycler' trust badges, and robust buyer protections.” – Gautam Taluja, Car Parts & Accessories Category Manager, eBay Australia.
