Where do you get wooden furniture for the same price?
I don't think it's fair to compare brand new unassembled Ikea furniture to used furniture found on a marketplace. Compare the price of used Ikea furniture with new Ikea furniture, or new Ikea furniture with new non-ikea furniture.
Used goods being cheaper isn't a surprise.
This! You can't compare brand new stuff with used stuff. And the comparison makes even less sense when you have to refurbish the used furniture. It is absolutely cool if that is a kind of a hobby for you, but it is not the same thing as buying new and unused furniture.
