re: Anyone used a private auto broker to buy a used car?

I have heard buying cars at auction has gotten a lot tougher and dealers are now telling sales teams not to lose trade ins. It'll be interesting to see your results as I'm wondering if the auctions are now too well known and being exploited by people like this.

Have a friend of a friend that was in this line of work. He searched for me for awhile, but I found a better deal on a trade in at a dealership several states over. Rented a car one-way and bought the trade in cheaper than anything he could find.
Discussed this with a friend who is a used car dealer. Said the demand at auctions had driven prices beyond resale of trade ins.
I'd expect this to be the case for awhile due to the flooded vehicles in Texas and Florida.
In a normal used car market, using a broker is a good way to go. Buyer beware for an undetermined period in the used car market.
