Not much to add to what has already been shared but I will add that every time I've looked at a consignment sale at any marina I've gotten this attitude. I've even gotten it when looking at consignment motorcycles.
I was told by one guy that he didn't like consignments because he really couldn't do anything to the vehicle nor did he have any room to negotiate. Compared to his used inventory where he'd service the engine, ensure everything was working, and have more room to make a profit.
