Buy your Dacia and Renault spare parts on eBay

In the United Kingdom, owners of Renault and Dacia can now purchase spare parts from official stores on eBay.

How do manufacturers combat counterfeit mechanical parts sold on platforms like eBay? By opening official shops and playing the game of direct competition.

This is essentially the idea developed by the Renault group in the UK, where the cost of living is outrageous. To cope, a dangerous parallel economy of spare parts has emerged. Manufacturers have no choice but to adapt to this new mode of consumption, even if workshops will no longer install these spare parts.

Recent and Old Models

For manufacturers, this move to eBay isn’t entirely foolish, as it allows them to sell off vast stocks of spare parts at low costs. Renault and Dacia’s approach targets both current and older models.

Owners of Renault and Dacia can now explore a wide catalog of official parts, ranging from essential maintenance items like oil and air filters to wear-and-tear components such as brakes and exhausts. All parts come with the quality guarantee from the manufacturers and the eBay Assured Fit guarantee, which offers full refunds if the part does not fit, provided it is returned within 30 days.

Customers can also use the “My Garage” feature on eBay, which allows them to enter their vehicle registration number to ensure the chosen parts are compatible with their model. This handy tool, combined with the extensive offerings of the new Renault and Dacia shops, makes vehicle maintenance easier than ever for owners… and may even discourage them from purchasing very dangerous counterfeit parts that jeopardize their safety and that of other road users.

An ultimate argument in favor of eBay is the ease of payment, especially with PayPal. With these virtual wallets, from which the money can have various sources, the feeling of spending large sums diminishes somewhat.
