Edmunds.com Comments on GM Selling New Vehicles on eBay | Business Wire

SANTA MONICA, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Beginning Tuesday, consumers in California can shop and start the

purchase of a new Buick, Chevrolet, GMC or Pontiac vehicle on Ebay.com

reports Edmunds’

AutoObserver.com. GM expects about 225 of its 250 dealerships in

California to participate in the trial program which is expected to end

September 8.

“While not groundbreaking, GM aggressively facilitating the placement of

dealer inventory on eBay can only help sell more vehicles,” said Jeremy

Anwyl, CEO of Edmunds.com.

“The most intriguing aspect is the ‘Buy It Now’ pricing. It will be

interesting to see how this feature is used by dealers.”

GM says California was selected because of the many tech-savvy consumers

and to help strengthen sales which are typically been weak in the state.

Consumers can visit the GM and eBay page at gm.ebay.com and will be

allowed the opportunity to ask questions to dealers.
