eBay Launches Local Auto Classified Ads

eBay has announced the launch of eBay Motors Local Classifieds for individual sellers today.  The idea of this program is to bring together local buyers and sellers within a 100 mile zone of their local market.

Sellers can list up to six vehicles for a seven day period with no insertion or successful listing fees through July 15.

Considering the launch is for individual sellers, wouldn’t most transactions be local anyway? eBay is pushing the idea that you can go kick the tires and really investigate the car in-person via only online.
