Not really a con. Also, if you are buying a 700 to replace your 50X then you still own the ebooks. They are still on your account. Once you register your 700 to your account you will be able to read all of your purchased ebooks.

I do think however that if you read the user license for buying from the eStore that it does say you are licensing the ebooks for your own use and can not transfer the license. So, you basically agreed to this "con" by buying ebooks from the store.

Also, you don't remove the cover of a book to sell it used. Books with the cover removed are books that were not sold originally at retail. This is supposed to indicate to other retailers (new or used) that they are not legal used books and should not be sold.
