The difference, depending on the unit, isn't always THAT drastic since they are more than usable the vast majority of the time... and ultimately it's the same reason I might pay a little more going to Best Buy getting a somewhat worse TV than buying a flatscreen out of the back of a guys truck in an alleyway.
This is coming from someone that does advocate people buy the used Gen 3's on the classifieds - they are usually a good deal - but to act like it's an open and shut case through and through is dishonest at best.
