I think selling and buying used games is worse than piracy where no money changes hands. When you buy and sell used games, the makers and publishers of the games don't get a dime, but someone else does thus profiting on someone else's labor. When you pirate a game without any money change, nobody gets any money.
So you're trolling or what?

got money from the original sale.
When you buy/sell a used game, you exercise a legal right. When you pirate a game, you break a legal right of others.
I suppose we shouldn't buy or sell cars used either, and we should all demolish houses and build a new home every time we move. Oh but they degrade! Even if that was a valid point, the value of games decreases faster than houses or cars and many people
prefer old houses to new ones.
BTW I don't buy used games, for various reasons. I make a decision and that is my right.
