Damn it. There goes my business plan of selling Golden Poison Frogs in
a container indistinguishable from a bag of Oreos.
I think the real problem lies with the concept of hand-me-down
Acceptable Use Policies / Licence Agreements -- that a party completely
removed from a retail environment might be able to dictate conditions of
a sale (and in some cases, resale!) Although I'll readily admit that
some restrictions may be reasonable, they shouldn't be entirely up to
the supplier/manufacturer.
