I rebuild automotive electrical components (starters, alternators, motors, generators, etc) and I would like to be able to add a core charge to the listing, but could not see how to do so. Any help on how to do that?
Thanks!

It cannot be done. A core charge involves giving back a part which would mean the buyer would have to ship something back to you, but not the item they bought, for a refund.
And selling something you have to build or rebuild won't work either. eBay wants one day or less shipping, no excuses.
It's an interesting idea, but not workable here.

Add your "Core Charge" as part of the basic price, and then put a letter in the shipping box saying that your customer can ship the old one back and you will pay "X" amount for it.

There are times you want to upgrade a part or the old is too broken to rebuild. I'm looking at an ad with an undisclosed $ after sale core penalty and ebay has no way to report these charges anymore.
