At least if you are shopping in the ~$1000 range. Of course there are great deals on used bikes but mostly people either ask too much money or sell bikes in poor condition (without describing it accordingly). Also finding a bike with your desired frame size is additional challenge.
Good bikes continuously improve and drop in price but most used bike sellers still set the asking price based on what they paid years ago. I got a brand new Diamondback Podium 3 (shimano 105 front & rear, carbon fiber fork and 7005 aluminum frame) for $850 last year from Amazon. It is only 15% heavier than a smaller all carbon fiber Scott my wife got but for half the price. It also shifts much better with the same shimano 105 components for unknown reason.
