there in comes the fine art of the negotiation. You will still do better than any dealership. how about ebay, my friend buys and sells carts all the time on there.

Autotrader, Craigslist, ...if you're not in a rush to get one you have even more leverage when it comes to negotiating.

I'm not a doctor but surely there's a shot they could give you to get you over this nonsense.

Yeah, used car shopping can be a frustrating experience. Most of the time I find that the car has had the piss beaten out of it or the seller is asking too much. Every once in a while you get lucky, though.
