I bought my light blue 2001 Vespa et4 new back in 2001. First thing I did was two-tone it with new ivory panels, and replaced the tires with white-walls. I put the original parts in a box in my garage and forgot about them. Then, I just recently replaced the seat. I'm looking to sell all of the original parts that I've replaced. Any suggestions on best method to sell these items. I'm in New Jersey. Thanks!

I am always surprised that people will pay more for used stuff on Ebay. That would be my first choice. With used stuff, you need to mention any scratches, etc, and take a lot of photos. Use the Ebay site to print shipping labels and you'll get very good rates.

eBay I put bit's on I am in no rush to sell and eBay keeps relisting them for a certain period and maybe once in a blue moon I have to relist it myself and the cycle repeats till sold.
Some quickly, some slowly.
Don't know what Facebook like stateside but brings a lot of time wasters and Muppets out to play in the UK.
