I bought my PW direct from Amazon but had it shipped as Gift so it wasn't registered to my account. As I always sideload books and never use wifi, my PW has never been registered with Amazon even though it was purchased in December 2012. It never occurred to me before reading this thread, but now I am hoping that if/when the new owner goes to register it, it will go through OK - bearing in mind that is has been 9 months since the sale and has never been registered or connected to wifi. If anyone has any experience with registering a Kindle (for the first time) so long after the original purchase date, I would be interested to know if there were any problems.
Why don't you register it now, then de-register it. Then you'll be sure that it'll be OK for the new owner.
