no idea what kind of car you were looking, but my last experience I took 1.5 mo to find a decent one. and then negotiation took another couple weeks.

in all that time i was still "searching" craigslist, and I could see the same cars over and over. A few were fast, of course.

wasn't looking for a specific car, just wanted a good deal on a car that matched my criteria

ended up getting the car 30% below the KBB value

ah ok, you were looking for the killer deals.

I was just looking for any car in my budget that was in perfect shape. So, not unfair to pair almost the book value.
