A For Parts listing is priced for what can be recovered from it rather than for use, so pet supplies at this grade are worth roughly 25% of top price — $3 to $61 (about £2 to £45). Sold for the frame, the hardware or the fittings, not for an animal to use. Cage panels and fixings get reused constantly.
Where the line falls
Pet equipment is judged on hygiene before wear: an item is bought on whether it can be cleaned properly, and chew damage decides the rest.
For comparison, one grade up is Fair Pet Supplies.

Listing at the For Parts grade
State that it is not fit for an animal to use as it stands, and name the fittings that are. That is the honest framing at this grade.
Shots that carry the most weight in pet supplies:

- Fish Tank — The internal corner seams close up, showing the silicone
- Hamster Cage — The base tray from above, showing floor area
- Pet Carrier — The door latch and hinge mechanism close up
On a typical $32 listing, a marketplace charging 20% takes $6, one charging 13.6% takes $4 and one charging 10% takes $3. WishThrift charges neither side, so you keep the whole $32. Listing is free.
