just searched my e-mail for my order receipts from Amazon. I didn't check every e-book order, there were over sixty of them, but the first ten all said "Sold by:" and then some seller, often Amazon, but also including various others publishers when the agency model applied.
Yup, what they sold you was a license. You can sell licenses.
You might be interested to know that every software program that you use is purchased under a license. What's an ebook? Its not a physical object; its software. I might add that there is nothing intrinsically inferior about a license. Its just a different bundle of property rights. But it is different from a sale.
