Your naive few of this situation is exactly what I expect developers/publishers see as well. I hope you understand that all these games I buy were purchased new. They're not bootlegged copies, they're not pirated copies. They're the games you sell. It's not me you need to worry about, it's the customers you seem to think so little of that will turn on you.

And you are ignorant enough to believe that whatever avenue you purchase/trade/rent your games from that the publisher or developer are seeing their share of that income.

If you rent a game, devs/pubs dont see a dime over the initial sale to the Rental company. If you trade a game its the same thing. Yes once upon a time it was sold as new. That is irrelevant as 20 people could rent that game, finish it, never look at it again. Only people that see that money is the rental company, not the devs/pubs.

Pubs generally pay devs a little money up front. Then their bonuses on that product and future work are based on the new sales of the games. Every time you rent/trade games it contributes to a darker future for games.

So don't be claiming people are naive about what Dev & Pubs see when you clearly don't know yourself and are only trying to justify dancing around paying as little as possible. This is your prerogative as it's your dime. But don't think for one second you are doing the industry, dev or pubs any favors doing it your way.
