Out of curiosity, is there a large group of people who buy expensive hardcovers only to resell them? Most of the used hardcovers I've purchased over the years have been either book club versions, remainder books or ex-library copies. Just speaking for myself, if I shell out money for a hardcover, it's staying in my possession until the estate sale.
