New Chevy Equinox Sales Now On Ebay

As reported earlier this week, GM has now started selling brand new Chevy Equinox and other GM products online, on Ebay. As promised, they began selling them on Tuesday August 11, on a test run basis, and intend to continue the test until September 8. Assuming the test goes well, I suspect you’ll be able to pick up your next 2010 Chevy Equinox on Ebay anytime you want.
GM is obviously hoping to dump a load of new cars, to see if they can eventually reduce the number of high cost dealers, and improve margins down the road, with more online, low cost sales. In addition to the Chevy Equinox, there will be other Chevy’s, such as the Chevy Silverado, as well as Buicks, Pontiacs, and GMC. This program, along with the Cash For Clunkers program(for which the Chevy Equinox does qualify), may be just what GM needs to rebound quickly from their exit from bankruptcy protection.
Unfortunately for consumers, this test run program will initially be limited to California, GM announced on Monday, but may be extended nationwide. Roughly 225 of California’s 250 GM dealers have signed on to the program. Starting Tuesday, car buyers began to visit gm.ebay.com or chevy.ebay.com and peruse new models. They can purchase at the listed “buy it now” price set below the sticker, or they may even be able to negotiate withe the dealer directly. A quick look at Ebay, shows there are currently over one hundred 2009 Chevy Equinox vehicles for sale in the program. Prices range from $20, 653 to $30,263, so you may just find a bargain on the 2009 Chevy Equinox. There is also one 2010 Equinox available for sale.
Naturally, some of the smarter, and internet savvy dealers had already been selling cars on Ebay on their own. Now GM is making this an official program in their efforts to turnaround their financial fortunes. Naturally if you want to buy your Chevy Equinox online on EBay, you would still have to come into your local dealer to arrange payment and pickup of your Equinox.
So, if you’ve been thinking about buying a sweet new Chevy Equinox, this might be a good time to do it. Get a great deal on Ebay, plus mix in the Cash For Clunkers rebate, and you could get a deal of a lifetime on your new Chevy Equinox!
