To some, $200k is funny money, play money with no meaning, they don't want to play the games (like buying cars they don't need to secure allocation), they don't want to wait or kiss their dealer's behind, they just want the car and play with it for a while until the novelty is gone.

Then they get rid of it with no second thoughts whether they lost or made money on it. 

Well said. To some people, $200,000 is chump change. To others myself included, we prioritize value regardless if we have several million or a few thousand. I would never pay beyond the value of any article.

If it's funny money, then why would they even want something so low end? Surely there is much more exciting stuff in the $1-5M range, no?
