Why would anyone pay you for your "used ebook" <stifles a snicker> when they can just steal the file. If they are going to steal from the author, why would they not steal from some guy trying to resell is "used" digital file <ok, now I can't actually hold the laughter in>

I think the point is, if people could sell their used ebooks they wouldn't put it on the internet for free because that would make it less likely that someone would buy it from them.
