The sad thing is that I often see used copies for sale in stores. The local EB had 2 copies of Auto Assault, and a copy of Factions for sale, all used.
I told the manager that it was illegal to sell a used copy of this game, since once it was registered, it could not be registered again. He just shrugged, and said that the people that sold them said that they only used the 14 day accounts. I looked through one of the copies, and noticed that the registration key was not even in the box (however they keys for 14 days free of other Arena software was inside).
For the most part, the selling of any on-line game is illegal. There are a few that turn a blind eye to the practice, but most are very agressive in closing the accounts of violators. Unless you have a buddy you can sell it to quietly, I would not bother.
