Default Hybrid joke of the day - used Hybrid prices

This last weekend I stopped by a FSBO (For Sale By Owner) used car lot and saw a nice red Prius. Just had to look at it even though I don't "need" a new/different car. It was a '05, it did have leather and it looked to be loaded to the hilt. Now comes for the funny part - the price - $31,500!!!!

I was real curious so I went to KBB.com, a LOADED '05 w/1,000 miles (I don't know the mileage of this one) was at a private party value of $26,420 in my area. What the heck are these people thinking???!!! There is only a $7 a week fee for parking the car on this piece of property. No sales people, no special commision if the vehicle is sold while parked on this property etc.

That price has to be an early April Fools Joke. I don't think someone who is sane would post that price. Anyone else see any carazy hybrid prices lately?

.

'00 Insight "Wazabi" -75,000+ miles
'03 Toyota Matrix - 81,000+ miles
'03 HCH-CVT-OSBM-41,000+ miles (retired 04-10-06)
"I'm very secure with my little Insight, no Prius envy here."
