They check the serial number against a list of devices that have been deregistered. Amazon, BN, and Sony all deregister ereaders that have been reported lost or stolen.

For those interested in learning how to report a device lost or stolen, or how to deregister it oneself, see: Lauren Indvik. (October 20, 2011). "What to Do if Your Ereader is Lost Or Stolen". Mashable.
