Some people are perfectly happy waiting for FedEx and some people are perfectly happy potentially paying more so they can walk out the door with what they want. Have those people been fooled or do they just not care about what the hunters care about? These are the intended targets of CPO. I used to work with an old motorcycle salesman who often said “there’s an a$$ for every seat”, a sentiment true in many other marketplaces.

Agree on all points but for those buying CPO I think not trusting random grey market sellers is more of the motivation than not caring about saving money.

Same people that take their cars to the dealership for service after warranty when they can save a lot of money going to an independent. They think the official dealership has more credibility and less risk. Ironically, it’s often the opposite.
