I don't understand this mentality. Haggling is, like, a few hours of work at most. AT MOST. It will save you *THOUSANDS* of dollars.
Exactly. I think most people are afraid of countering with a lower price due to embarrassment or being considered rude. It's your money that you are saving so use ever smart tactic that you could.

You can get the Carmax offer, which is good for one week, and take it with you when you go to the dealer. The dealer immediately matched the Carmax offer when they saw the paper.
I'm curious how this would work for a used car. Since there are so many variables involved with a used car (condition, mileage, etc), I feel like the dealership would be hesitant to try and match Carmax's offer.
I had a Carmax offer that was $2500 more than the dealer offered. The dealer told me to sell to Cqrmax which we did.

If you don't like haggling and have a Costco membership, do that. But your choices will be limited.
