Used Car Buying Advice

Speaking of the guys buying a certain commodity.
Does anyone know if they do buy from dealers?
A Family friend got blacklisted by them because she sold like 6 cars to them in the last year.
She'll will buy a crap car somewhere or from them and sell it the guy that's buys cars for R20k less a month later.

So just interested why she got banned, maybe because they got burned buying utter shit from her and the dealer thing is just a smoke screen.
I mean which dealer won't be happy to buy a vehicle back for R20k less a month after they sold it.

They will buy from anyone if the price is right. I cant suspect them buying much from dealers since the dealer will be looking to make a profit and sell at retail. They wont want to pay that amount of money.

However, many dealers do buy from them since they need the stock. As much as 30% of their sales, if not more, is reported to be to dealers. I wont quote my source on this. However a lot of this was during Covid times (2021 - mid 2022) when the used car market was on its head.
