The question never was if reselling an ebook is legal or not. The question in this thread originally was if prohibiting the reselling of an ebook is legal in the terms of use. Sound almost the same, but it is not the same. Only because the terms of use don't prohibit reselling does not automatically mean reselling an ebook is legal. It may or may not be legal under other laws - e.g. copyright laws.
