I agree with Ficke. Private sellers are also influenced by the cost of money over time. I sold a car last year to a dealer for $1000 less than I could have gotten private party if I sold it myself. I wanted the car off my credit while I bought my new house and I wanted the equity in the car to buy an atv for my new property. Those needs were worth a $1000 to me. Not all private sales are created equally.
Though on the flip side many private sales are emotional. Look at our friend up in Wyoming. He has 100 cars and is attached to all of them.
