Why is it so hard to find a good 850 wagon? 850 1997

Sorry for posting here, but getting frustrated.

I've been looking for several weeks now, and it seems
all the good ones are kept, and only half-junks are for
sale. Most of private sales have had body work done to
them. I've been looking at different volvo dealers,
wantad, cars.com & yahoo with no apparent luck.

Anyone recommend any other place to look?

I don't know why, but I really like 850 styling, even
over 70's, 80's, & 90's.

Almost bought one, but had a last minute snafu... there
still is a chance to get it. I already ordered Haynes
manual (ha!).

Fyi, I'm looking for an 850GLT or turbo wagon, 97 (or 96).
Or, should I give up and look at the V70's?

I should've bought one way back when they were new, it was
actually my dream car (don't laugh, please).

Sorry again if this sounded like a WTB (which I placed already,
under a different handle - a long story),
but I really, really, really want one. Good thing is, my
wife likes it too.
