eBay Motors and AutoNation Direct "Tent Sale" – With a Twist
What's going on? It's not a limbo contest, but eBay is asking consumers to find out how low they can go in a modern version of the classic Summer Tent Sale, offering auto shoppers great deals on brand new 2012 vehicles.
Starting at Noon ET, Thursday, June 28 through 8pm ET, Monday, July 2, eBay Motors, in partnership with AutoNation Direct, will list more than 50 new 2012 cars and trucks in AutoNation Direct's eBay store, with each vehicle's listing price decreasing significantly every hour until one lucky customer decides the time is right to hit "buy-it-now" and make the purchase.
Car shoppers looking to find a great deal will have the opportunity to purchase vehicles during the sale period from a long list of popular brands such as Chevy, Dodge, Ford, Jeep, Nissan and Toyota. Each vehicle listing will appear at various times throughout the sale period in a special online showroom (http://www.ebay.com/new-car-revolution), and will remain there until someone feels the discount is too good to pass up and decides to pull the trigger and buy the vehicle – before someone else does.
