    Default Can't find category to sell.

    Hi, as you probably see by my title for this post then yeah, I'm a newbie here.
    Problem is that I can't find a category for DeWalt, Milwaukee batteries or any power tools whatsoever. Been through them over and over. Am I missing something?

    Thanks in advanced

    There are Tools category and subcategories under Home and Garden.

    For the kind of stuff that you are selling I would suggest Business, Office & Industrial > Light Equipment & Tools and its subcategories.

    The ever present problem with 'tools' is that they appear in a myriad of fields; motor vehicles, plumbing, woodworking, building, household, etc. Often with the same tools being used in more than one field of work.

    That's what I mean, I'm not gonna list m18 SDS etc under car category. It's would be stupid. I'm only new to the site and iv a lot of lines to add but it's a bit confusing here atm.

    Since many searches are done by putting in keywords regardless of categories, I wouldn't worry too much.
    Click for bargain auctions!

    Yes I figured by now but thank you. Iv over 300 regular lines to add but it takes hours and hours and this site is new to me plus it works slightly different than most platforms but I'll get used with it .

    Well I still think that the category Business, Office & Industrial > Light Equipment & Tools is your best bet.

    For example, your battery packs would be better under:
    Business, Office & Industrial > Light Equipment & Tools > Tool Batteries & Chargers

    Better than under Cars & Vehicles anyway.
