Tesla Used Inventory Down 30%?

Tesla seems to have this method of lowering used prices for unsold vehicles by about $500-700 per day until it is sold when it wants to move a car. Curiously, this process doesn't seem to be affected by massive price cuts to the new vehicles. They don't drop prices for used cars in any different way - they just keep lowering it slightly every day like they normally would.
Right now I am seeing a 2017 P100DL with 21,500 miles on it for $99,000. The only option on it is the color ($1,000) and the wheels ($4,500). A Raven P100DL with the rebate and the destination fee with the exact same options PLUS a 10% better range and much improved suspension & newer AP tech would cost only $6,000 more. Did I mention one is a 2017 model with 21,500 miles and the other is NEW and custom built for you?

2017 Model S | Tesla
Tesla is selling this 2 year old car with 16,000 miles on it for $104,700.
This car bought new would be $105,000 with incentives. It would have a way better suspension and 30 miles higher range.
What.

This dealership is selling a 2018 Model X for $93k. I offered them 75k (20% depreciation for 1 year), they replied and said "Than you for your offer but we are not in a position to sell it that low. If you are willing to get closer to our asking price, we can do something. Below is a link to a carfax of the vehicle."
So I replied and said "If you are willing to lower the asking price of your used 2018 Model X to less than Tesla currently sells a brand new and improved 2019 model, we can do something. Below is a link to Tesla.com showing a brand new 2019 Model X (red/black/6 seater) for less than you're asking."
This is probably the 10th listing Ive seen on ebay of a Model X listed for more than a brand new showroom model. Sellers are oblivious and refuse to use a little bit of common sense when pricing these cars.

I emailed a dealer that was selling a P100D for $106k and told him that exact car could be bought for $104.5k new. His response was "you and me both know you can't get that car new for $104.5k." Infuriating.

I was interested in the car, it fit all of my requirements. They had listed it a while ago so I thought maybe they forgot to update their pricing

Give it a few days, I am sure the moronic dealership will email you back with a "oh we decided to lower the price" like most stupid dealers do.
And of course they'll also say that they have another couple on a test drive right then and that you should hurry if you want the car

That might work on a $2-5k price difference. But many of the Model Xs on ebay are $20k+ overpriced. They are not coming down in price to a reasonable amount.

Just a FYI, I just received a call from my OA and was informed Tesla started a new promotion today, free 22" Onyx wheels on the Model X.
Also in the market for a Tesla Model X 100D/long Range. I had reached out to a few of the Tesla Sales locations and all of them said wait tell September for discounts. That is when Tesla will adjustments to hit their Sales guidance. By then, you should also expect the used market prices to be reset. I don't think Dealers are aware of the new pricing or at least have not seen the impact. It's the waiting, just need to have patience.

I personally place zero value on free supercharging. I will just charge mine at my house and would only use superchargers on road trips (1-2 times a year). I would not pay more than $500 for free supercharging.
Agree.. i frequent S. cali about 3+ times/year. So the Free SC is a great perk when traveling. Other than that, a few bucks a home for home charging is a price I'll pay to not waste my time to sit and wait.
