You could at least be able to sell old games after some years in the Steam Market.

Since you will not get much steam wallet credits from Steam Market for really old games anyways, so it would not affect the developers and publishers, including Valve and it's politics for it's games.

Doesn't matter, it's still related to the selling of digital game topic that has been beaten in to the ground with dozens of threads.

Also please stop using the term "used' as if it has any relevance to digital products.

Fact: A digital product is always the same no matter how many times you use it. It does not degrade over time.

This forum needs a FAQ or something. Seems like we get the same questions every few weeks.

"Doesn't matter", If I didn't found the same Idea, where is writting down I can't post it?
Also, It's value degrade, It's not like art market. Is there any new rule in the forum not allowing me to talk about supposedly "used" games?

@Sharp: It's like that in most Forums eh..

Tux: Looks like you just got rounded on by the usuals...try not to let it get to you...

The old days are gone..now it's just one purchase for each person, and no more pre-owned game trading. A digital 'product' is actually worthless...just a file of data, copied millions of times.....

It's not your game, it's not your profile, we just have the right to access it if we spend the money. LOL...

The lenght of time is not the salient point

Ok, good if you don't care about your rights are costumers. If you agree with this, in the future maybe the next step is to make you pay everytime you play a game...

Oh rubbish. Nobody attacked you for bringing such an ill-conceived idea into this forum. Why are you attacking us? Accusing us of not caring about our rights as "costumers." You don't know anybody here so you have no idea what we do or don't care about. Making such an absurd statement...unreal.

If you can make a case for trading in used games then make it. Otherwise, quit wasting everybody else's time.

You should actually educate your self on your consumer rights. Because you dont know what they are if you're whining about them about this.

Your straw man is noted and ignored.

Used game sales directly impact publishesr and devs and is in fact a countable quantifiable lost sale for them. The only people benefiting from used games is Gamestop. You might note that Gamestop' gross PROFIT from used game products was 1 BILLION dollars.

Thats 1 BILLION dollars that is not going to the devs or publsihers. That is not paying for the next game. That's money literaly being burned into a pit all so some kid can save $5 on a game.

The next time your favourite developer closes shop or a game gets cancelled or whatever, think about where that 1 billion dollars could ahve gone. Instead of lining the pockets of Gamestop. Was taht $5 off really worth it?

I was attacked with people saying my idea is completely garbage, with no arguments, simply a "oh, it doesn't matter". If you don't want to post in my thread simply don't post , LoL

You're the first person to mention "garbage" in this thread.

"Oh rubbish" LoL Good Night, It's late in my country(I'm not american, so I can't spend all my money in games, I recognize, but I'm not poor too) and I will not discuss "what is the sex of the angels" all the night with you. Also I said "IF" you don't care about your rights; IF(again) you don't know how to interpret a text, i'm making a suposition, not an affirmation. Also it's against the rules to derail from the thread matter, IF(one more supposition) you didn't read the rules. Thanks, and sorry if I did any mistake at all, I'm not perfect.
