CarParts.com had 335 employees in the United States. The company also had 500 employees in the Philippines handling a call center, website development, and back office. Online sales on eBay and Amazon each represented 42% of their sales, and private label collision parts were responsible for 62% of revenue. Their annual sales were $280 million at a gross margin of 30%.[10]
