Club RacingJunk Members enjoy many more features and options than Basic Members. We offer two levels - Fan Club and Pro Club for different needs.
Click here to see more great benefits! https://www.racingjunk.com/signup
RacingJunk Pro Club Members get value points on the initial sign up as well as and when membership is renewed. These points are like money to spend on your ads, and can be used for upgrades including feature, premier or repost functions. Annual Pro Club RacingJunk members will receive 6500 ($65) points each year, Monthly Pro Club RacingJunk members will receive 500 ($5) each month. Each point is worth $.01, so $10 worth of value points = 1,000 value points. Value points are only available to Pro Club RacingJunk Members and Businesses.
Of course not! We love all visitors. You can browse the site, search ads and contact sellers without being a member, although even free Basic Membership has some great benefits to members, including a secret decoder ring (just kidding). If you do want to post ads (and you know you do! you must have something in that garage!) you can become a Basic member for free and post up to 2 ads with no charge.
You can change your username, password, and the associated email address with your account so that it will appear as a new account, but we can't cancel accounts as they are kept for historical purposes.
Ohhhh noooo, don't go!! If you really have to, we will miss you! Cancelling is easy, just send an email to [email protected] or call 1-413-663-3496. We will send an email confirmation upon cancellation.
Although your membership gives you added perks when placing an ad, they are not mutually exclusive. If your membership expires, your ad does not. If your ad expires, your membership does not. If you do not want to continue getting charged after your ad has been taken down, then contact us to cancel your membership by emailing us at [email protected] or call us at 866-326-9227.
An account typically is disabled for either scammerish activity or if the person went against our terms of service. Accounts can be re-open if the person talks with a RacingJunk team member and understands what they did wrong.
Yes! Registration is simple and it's FREE You can also just post an ad and registration is part of the process. Click here to sell your stuff, it's FREE
Once you sell your item (Congrats!!!) you will want to go to Manage Ads and in Active Ads find your ad and mark it as sold. You will be given the option to make an Honor Payment at that time. You also have the option of Deleting your ad in Manage Ads. Your ad will remain on the site for the length of time selected during the posting process if it is not deleted or sold and be removed automatically when that time has expired.
If your Premiere ad does not have a picture, it will not show as a Premier ad so you will want to add a picture to your ad. Pictures increase your chances of selling your ad immensely. Our Pro Club members receive 50 pictures per ad for FREE!
To add a picture to your ad, you would go to Manage Ads in your account, then click EDIT MEDIA and then BROWSE for a picture on your phone or computer. Once you find a file and click OPEN, the picture will start uploading. When you see the picture on the ad scroll down and click SAVE CHANGES. The ad will display your image correctly and then be able to show in the PREMIER section of the site.
If that doesn't fix the problem, give us a call! 1-866-326-9227.
There are two ways to refresh an ad and get it posted back to the front:
1. Use the Re-posting option, which posts the ad back to the front. This option has a $20.00 service fee, but you can your value points to cover this. You may get to that by logging into your account and clicking on "My Ads", then EXPIRED ADS and REPOST. If you use this option, your ad will be posted back to the front and be extended for an additional 4 weeks.
If your ad is not expired yet, you can login and click "My Ads" then UPGRADE and select REPOST.
If your ad has expired yet, you can login and click "My Ads," select EXPIRED ADS and select the REPOST button
If you would like the ad to repost every day, you can add that option on the UPGRADE page. The cost for that upgrade is $300 per month.
2. Once the ad has been removed, you can post a new one in its place by clicking POST AD and type out the ad again. (FREE)
We support .jpeg, .jpg, .png and .gif file formats with a Max file size: 3MB. If none of that works, try posting the ad first without the photo. Go back to "My Ads" and click on 'Edit' under the ad you want to post the photo in. Go through the process of uploading your photo. There is a time out function on the posting process and not on the editing process, so the above process should work. If you still have a stubborn photo you can email it to us as an attachment, along with the ad number, and we will post that for you. Email it to [email protected]
Congratulations on posting your ad. When an ad is posted we display it as an Early Access ad for the first 24 hours. Early Access ads are only visible to our trusted club members. This makes sure your ad is being seen by these users first before the rest of the users.
ZERO. Unlike eBay we don’t take a piece of the pie. When you sell something you keep 100% of the profit. We do offer people the ability to make honor payments If you do feel as though the website helped you sell your item but there is no obligation to do so
An account typically is disabled for either scammerish activity or if the person went against our terms of service. Accounts can be re-open if the person talks with a RacingJunk team member and understands what they did wrong.
The price can only be entered as numbers. Any symbols or letters will not be accepted in the system. If the system keeps throwing an exception for the user, the price section can be left empty and filled in later on after the ad is finished posting.
The cost to post an ad for you is $59.95 per ad placed.
Concierge service is a paid service that we offer to our users that are having trouble or would like us to post an ad for them. We understand that sometimes technology isn't your friend or you simply do not have the time to sit down, create an account and post an ad. For that reason we now offer a concierge service were we do the work for you. If you don't have an account, we will create one for you. We will then sit with you and post your ad for you. The only thing you will have to send to us is photos. To find out more information about our concierge service, you can visit this page: https://www.racingjunk.com/concierge_service
On the first page of the posting process a user sometimes accidentally clicks the page before filling out the RECAPTCHA. Unfortunately, there is not a way to get it to regenerate but you can get around this issue if you create an account first. Once you create your account the ad that you started should be placed into your account as an unfinished ad. If for some reason it was not placed in your account, please contact us so we can see if we can find your unfinished ad for you.
There are two ways to post a video to your ad listing. If you have a YouTube video, you can copy the video link, or if you have a video on your phone or computer, you can upload it directly. This can be done when you create the listing or can be added in after. You can upload a video up to 100MB in the following formats: MP4, MOV, OGG, WEB, and OG. It's a $10 upgrade for Basic or Fan Club members and FREE for our Pro Club members.

Questions? We're always here to help! Email [email protected] or call 866-326-9227.
Whenever you are viewing results either in a category or after a search, there are 3 tabs at the top of the results that allow you to filter the ads by, "all," "private sellers" and "dealers." If you click on any of those tabs, it will automatically filter your results. For example if you were to click on the "private seller" tab you will only see ads that have been posted by private sellers.
Every sellers ad has a contact us form at the bottom of the ad that lets you send a message directly to a seller. The message will be emailed to them and they can decide whether or not they want to contact you back. Users also have the option to provide a phone number on their ad. You may contact them directly with the phone number listed on the ad. Please note that sellers do not have to include a phone number (although most of them choose to include it). The phone number can be found at the top of the ad, above the photo on the right hand side and also at the bottom of the ad in the "About The Seller" section.
There can be two reasons for this.
1) You are either not logged in or are a basic user and are seeing Early Access ads. We only show 3 Early Access ads to non logged in users and basic users. Please see more information here about exclusive ads: https://www.racingjunk.com/earlyaccess
2) The category or results that you are viewing only have a few ads that were posted today. If you are looking at a refined search or some of our smaller categories, this certainly can lead to only a few ads being posted today.
Early access ads are only open to our select membership levels (Fan or Pro). These members receive exclusive 24-hour access to view these newly posted ads before they are available to the rest of our site users. All ads will be accessible to everyone on the site after the 24 hour early access period has ended. You can find more information here: https://www.racingjunk.com/earlyaccess
It is completely FREE to post an ad listing on RacingJunk. Unlike other classifieds websites like eBay where you pay to post an ad, RacingJunk allows users to place ads for FREE. You do have to be a member to place an ad, but we offer a FREE basic membership. Many users have a FREE basic account, place free ads and sell them without giving us a dime. There are ad upgrades and additional membership levels available to help sell your item more quickly.
You can choose the length of time you want an ad to run ranging from 1 to 16 weeks
This all depends on what upgrade you are looking to do with your ad. We have many different upgrade options depending on what your goal is. We have ad placement upgrades, visibility upgrades, run time upgrades and media upgrades. To see a list of all of the upgrades that you can do to your ad, visit the manage ads section of the site (https://www.racingjunk.com/my_ads) and click upgrade next to the ad that you would like to upgrade.
If you are a Business we have several options available beginning as low as $55/mo to promote your product or services. Please click here to see our Media Kit: https://www.racingjunk.com/mediaKit/mediakit.pdf
An Honor Member is someone who has successfully used the site to sell their item(s) and has made an Honor Payment to us as outlined in our site agreement. To reward members that send us Honor Payments we put the Honor Member icon on their ad. This prestigious icon is visible to all individuals that browse or search or ads. It lets potential buyers know that they are dealing with a reputable seller that supports RacingJunk.com. Your Honor Member Level will change accordingly.
In the "My Ads" section of your account you will see a link at the top of every ad you post "Honor Payment". Click on that link and it will direct you to the location to make a payment. There is also a link in the drop down that pops up when you hover over your name in the top right hand corner of site that will take you to the same location. You can call us at 866-326-9227 to make a honor payment or send us a Check or Money Order to: RacingJunk, PO Box 59757, Los Angeles, CA 90074

It is very important that our members notify us of any potential scams or scammers right away. There are a couple of different ways that you can report a scam to us
In addition to informing us of potential scams, we strongly encourage our members to use an ESCROW account to complete any transactions that you are not making in person. We encourage members to use an escrow service to make sure that your transaction is safely done. An escrow service protects both parties involved in the transaction. Buyers receive and inspect the merchandise before the Seller is paid. Sellers receive their money if the Buyer accepts the merchandise. For more information go to www.escrow.com.
You can find more information about protecting yourself here: https://www.https://www.racingjunk.com/s/scamsThere are a lot of different ways scammers can scam both buyers and sellers. One of the most common scams involves a potential buyer sending more money then you are asking for. They then request for you to accept the money, but send the additional funds back to them. Most likely what is happening is that the check is bad and when you send money back to the scammer you are actually sending your own money instead of the extra money.
You can find more information about protecting yourself here: https://www.racingjunk.com/s/scamsYes!
