To me the auction is just an exchange. Move 'em in and move 'em out. Everyone goes home with inventory.
I loved the car business for the short time I was in it. The people sucked.

Actually, they do not "overpay" for the trade in the situation you describe. The trade always has an ACV on it and the "overpay" that you think you are seeing comes out of the hide of the car they are selling. Always.
