Creativity and good marketing tips are very important, especially in rough times like these are, of budget cuts and little advertising.

GM is currently reorienting and searching for new ways to increase sales, and so they decided to try a partnership with eBay.

Plans are to sell the core GM brands-Chevrolet, Cadillac, Buick and GMC- in two ways, either by putting a set price or attract potential clients into an official auction, which is actually the main way of buying on eBay.

Ebayer's are notorious cheapskates. They won't touch a car unless its 20%+ off the dealers selling (not list) price (which ain't gonna make the dealers happy).

That's what happens when you drive a car off the lot?

No worries. GM cars depreciate as fast as water evaporating from a cup and ebay users know this. The average GM vehicle loses about half its worth in about 3 years. They just do not want to deal with the mass depreciation.
