Figures are meaningless it's simply supply and demand! Something is worth what someone will pay.
007 you for arguments sake are buying a Cirrus.You have 10 you are looking at ? The Top dollar ones are well specked, kept in Hangers. One owner,No damage History and low hours.
Your engineer checks one of them ! That aircraft had a chute pull, landed at high force and was extensively damaged! It has been well rebuilt.
Would you buy it any where near the price of the others?
I would not unless it was substantially cheaper to such an extent that I felt sure if I sold her next year my money was secure!
You are buying someone's problem which then becomes your problem!
What is someone's problem worth to you ?
