Value is pretty much bullshit and the current car market shows it, with dealers tacking on prices just because they can. A great example of how screwed it is, outside of the widespread markups, is used car dealer in Carlisle, PA. The dealer is… a piece of work.

In a market like this with ever-shrinking inventories, Platinum has a pretty healthy 224 cars as of this writing. Most are priced similarly to the nightmares in the header photo above.

Take these shown above. They have relatively low miles for being two and three years old, but the dealer is asking $29,990 each. The dealer is also asking for nearly $30,000 for a base, blank-button-having subcompact that Kelly Blue Book says shouldn’t be worth more than $14,000 in very good condition.

What about a hatch? That should be cheaper right? Think again. This place put a $24,990 price tag on this with over 107,000 miles on the odometer. this little setup at around $9,700.

Someone in the market for a Ford Fusion shouldn’t be too sad that Ford doesn’t make them anymore. Platinum can help them out, as long as they’re willing to part with $20,000 for a 16-year-old .

Want an SUV? How about a that costs as much as a new one, except it has nearly 97,000 miles? Only a fool would drop $34,000 on a six-year-old crossover. Honestly, if you’re in the mood for a laugh, their inventory has gems. Signs of illegal substance use are evident throughout the dealer’s inventory:

A $38,000 base with almost 30,000 miles.

A $41,000 . LX mind you.

A $47,000 regular-cab work with just under 16,000 miles.

Even the listed, so-called “high-end stuff” is a joke. I’m a huge fan of the Kia Stinger but I wouldn’t pay $59,990 for a with 14,000 miles, .

Go and check this place out if you want a good laugh — or nightmares. Just don’t give them any of your business.
