Great gods, no. I'm sure you don't need me or anyone else to tell you that selling something while keeping a copy of it yourself is just plain piracy. This is precisely the reason that so many people are against allowing the resale of digital goods: the belief that many people would simply buy an ebook then resell it while keeping a copy themselves.
