It's possibly about how much the seller needs the money. On SOR there are two prices from the dealer point of view...so the conversation would usually go
I can offer this for sale at X (unsaid:it will look nice in my showroom and costs me nothing to have it here) or, if you really want to sell it straightaway it will have to be X minus 20(or whatever) percent.
Dealer gets same profit either way. So the seller decides, take a long view and hope to get high price or sell immediately.
Same thing happens in estate agent offices with bereavement sales of houses.

Maybe lots of sellers at the moment need the cash?
