No-comp pricing
How to handle truck parts with no eBay comps
No accepted eBay comps does not mean no opportunity. It means the result needs a fallback source ladder and a clear warning before any marketplace action.
Use this guide with lookup
Run one no-comp candidate and keep the result clearly labeled before deciding whether it belongs in a batch.
Treat no-comp as a workflow state
No-comp parts should not be hidden inside the same queue as confident listing candidates.
- Group no-comp parts as not enough market evidence.
- Ask for external reference data before listing.
- Keep the recommended action as review, not publish.
Use a fallback source ladder
When eBay comps are missing, use labeled references in a consistent order and keep the limitation visible.
- Start with OEM, dealer, or supplier reference data when available.
- Use public product pages as active asking-price context, not sold-market proof.
- Document why the fallback is strong enough or why the part should wait.
Protect margin while uncertainty is high
No-comp pricing should be more cautious because demand and shipping risk are harder to measure.
- Keep cost, package profile, and shipping assumptions visible.
- Use a manual approval note before validation.
- Avoid automatic repricing for no-comp items until evidence improves.
