i learned a little in sight when i was shopping for a used vehicle this last spring. i had a "87 chevette that was dead on her wheels and just needed a dependable 3rd run around/garbage hauler. i went to all the dealerships looking for used vehicles and always found the low mileage high priced stuff.
one local dealer was really nice. i stopped in and looked at a few vehicles and i asked him why it was hard to find good used vehicles cheap. he said when a car is traded in to them, its is analyed for sale potetnial. 1st, car they sell it from their lot with a profit and if not, what it will get at the sale barn, where, as he called it, the dirt lot used car sales will pick it up.
this carried over when i went to the toyota dealer and i asked about the cheap stuff, i got a newbie saleman who took me to their auction lot before it was sent to auction. she even said they only keep certain vehicles in teh lot and wont even attempt to sell them.
but it is sad to say, when you want something someone else has they get to decide how much to sell it for, its all in how bad they want to sell it and how bad u want it.
