Actual sales price is often never seen online. I built wrecked vehicles for many years and can attest that private sales are a PITA as you often are unwilling AND! unable to deal with the MANY! folks who have a beater to trade and poor or zero credit and not much in their pocket either. They are often so upside down to deal for something it takes a dealers ability to offer financing packages that make a sale possible. Yes, there's asking vs. actual sale price which is why most sellers build dollar space to begin with. People in internet times all think they're experts based on the huge amount of info online. Between Carfax & price listings to good to be true, everybody thinks they know true values when reality is that dealers most often have knowledge the average joe just doesn't have access too.
There are gonna be a huge bunch of various gizmos for sale in the new future when this covid & materials & labor shortage comes around. My UPS man says they can't get enough help and that's one of the better jobs out there in my rural area, highly sought in years past. Yet we here what a great recovery the USA is in now. I'm trying to avoid politics...
He & his Dad have been trying to buy a small band sawmill and the mfg.'s are months behind, Yet there are people buying sawmills who cannot identify a tree species-I see that often based on question seen online from new mill owners. Hobby farmers are in that mix- maybe so?
