This happens on the dealers lot also.
In 2011 we purchased a brand new hybrid travel trailer, didn't know to negotiate and paid the dealers asking sale price. In 2014 we traded it in on a brand new travel trailer. The dealer put it on the lot and priced it $2000 more than I paid for it 3 years earlier. It sat on the lot all summer and then on to the next. They finally sold after lowering the price to about where I thought it should have been in the first place. I often wonder, when looking on a dealers lot there seem to be a huge amount of dirty, long in the tooth trailers sitting for sale in the back lot. Did these used to be clean and current models, but ones that never sold because they were over priced?
