My Carvana offer has dropped almost $3k since early September. It's down from $37,320 to $34,489.

If the former, I wouldn't read too much into it. It may be a fair representation or one (or both) of the two days may be oddly high or low. Tracking every day, often at multiple points during the day, there are weird days when the offer is a couple $k high or low compared to the couple days around them (and sometimes one offer during the day is considerably higher or lower than the others that day). Also, Carvana seems to prefer appliance cars to interesting/enthusiast cars. FWIW, today vs June 27...Carvana's offer on the Camaro is about $5k lower now than June 27 while their offer for my RAV4 has gone up about $3k. Meanwhile, Carmax's offers on both cars today are very close to what they were on June 27...and the Camaro offer is about $9k higher than Carvana's. (Yesterday's Carmax offer on the Camaro was $1200 higher than today's and the largest spread I've seen between Carmax and Carvana on the Camaro has been nearly $13k.)

I have plenty of 30 second periods during the day while on brain dead calls where I can type a couple numbers and click a few boxes.

I think it has much more to do with the fact that Carvana's target customers want to buy appliance cars and aren't very interested in interesting cars. I've been following daily since summer 2019. Most of that time has been not-normal for auto sales, but seasonality does not seem to be a factor.

I’m curious about this in general because dealer lots are so sparse right now. When I was at the dealer earlier today for an oil change (free) —they were parking the vehicles in diagonal to “fill” the lot which is normally a rectangular grid of vehicles so it would not look empty. I have never in my life seen something like that on a dealer lot.
