I have experienced this myself... the bankrollers who finance the used cars for a dealership will from time to time get the yard to put the cars out even at down to half price and potentially sell at a loss, just to move stock which has been sitting unsold for too long.

It can be a good win situation for a buyer who's prepared to take his time and keep a close eye on a dealer's stock for that particular gem of a car he is chasing. Inside info at short notice is an added bonus! Of course the dealers don't advertise the fact unfortunately, for obvious reason.
