I used to go to the Manheim auction in St Louis, and would drive cars back after dealerships bought them .......The amount of cars that go through there in a day was incredible. And the amount dealers pay, and then turn around and mark it up is even more incredible.
But anywho, good luck in your search. I've found as said above that Autotrader / cars.com / CarGurus are all good and have nice Vettes for sale

I'm a small independent dealer and use Manheim daily. Just from a cursory glance I can tell you that there is very little markup from wholesale to retail on most stock condition low mileage C7s in any trim level. The maddening thing about buying most cars at wholesale is that you have little recourse as a dealer if you get a car in lesser condition than expected. From a retail consumer point of view, you have more protections than dealers have in your ability to inspect a car or schedule a PPI to ensure you're buying a good car. This goes even more so for manual transmission cars, where the clutch is not usually considered an item that can be arbitrated. I remember buying a MT Camaro a few years ago thinking I got a great buy at auction, only to find the clutch slipping as soon as I was on the freeway in 5th and 6th gear.
I would highly recommend buying Corvettes mostly from private sellers who have taken great care of them, have receipts, and are willing to let you inspect the cars (at your cost of course). Best wishes!
