No disrespect intended typically if a car had 200K or more miles on it they'd pay scrap value, unless the car was a real gem and then they'd pay a little under what a wholesaler would give them. Bottom line is 99% of the time people with high mile cars were better off selling them privately.
Well sure.
Common sense should indicate that no 200K+ car is going to bring much on trade.
If these cars are fully functional, have been maintained well and look decent in and out then the OP would be money ahead selling them himself.
There is a hassle factor involved in doing that, though, so the marginal yield might not be worth the marginal headaches to the OP.
