That seems like a very reasonable deal that the OP got.
Last year we bought the DW a new Honda Civic. We brought her SUV in as a trade. Luckily we went to CarMax the day before and got a 7 day offer. The Honda dealer offered $8,900 for her old SUV. Said no thanks and brought it home along with her new Honda. Next day we dropped off the old SUV at CarMax for $14,000.
That's the third time we have had a great offer to sell to CarMax. Very quick and simple process.
I've heard this before. Seems to me that CarMax would be a good place to go purchase an overpriced used car if your price selling to them (and others as well) was so good. They need to make a margin too, right?
