Verified Car-Parts Marketplace
Trust, engineered into the order itself.
AutoParts Tunisia connects drivers and garages with verified parts suppliers across the country. Buyers find compatible parts through a vehicle finder or full-text search, place an order with a 20% deposit, and a human operator calls the supplier to confirm real stock before anything ships. It's a three-sided platform — a customer storefront, an admin call-and-deposit queue, and a supplier inventory and fulfilment dashboard — built on Next.js 16 with a Neon Postgres core, Meilisearch for search, and Cloudflare R2 for media.
The problem
Buying car parts in Tunisia is a minefield: listings advertise stock that doesn't exist, prices change at pickup, and buyers get burned on deposits. There was no trusted way to order a specific part for a specific vehicle and actually receive it.
The answer
A marketplace with human verification at its core. Orders enter an AWAITING_DEPOSIT state, a 20% deposit locks them in, and an operator calls the supplier to confirm stock before fulfilment — the balance paid cash on delivery. A deposit-deadline cron auto-expires stale orders so inventory never gets stuck.
From scan to delivery
How an order works
Find the part
Buyer selects make, model, and engine, or searches by name through Meilisearch.
Pay 20% deposit
The order is locked in an AWAITING_DEPOSIT state until the deposit clears.
We call the supplier
An operator phones the supplier to confirm the part is genuinely in stock.
Delivered, pay the rest
Confirmed orders ship and the balance is paid cash on delivery.
