Some comedians make their names via commercials, and some commercial campaigns seek out name comedians to lighten up and brighten up their brands. This new holiday gift TV ad blitz by eBay definitely falls into the latter group, going to go-to guys Jim Gaffigan, Kevin Hart, Michael Ian Black and Michael Showalter to make you think about looking up an online auction or two for your gift ideas this winter.

After the jump, all of the other new eBay ads with stand-up comedians!
Kevin Hart goes the domestic route with two spots focusing on his wife and family, and sneaking in some stand-up jokes.
Michael and Michael have issues with their online auction experiences! Seems like Black gets the best of Show yet again, doesn't he?

These are really good. I wonder how much input the comedians had.
You missed Maria Bamford’s series of Target commercials.
