Hi all,
Afaik, publishers destroy old unsold books by tearing off the front
cover before destroying them. This means that if you are offered a book
without the front cover, neither the author nor the publisher has made
any money from it, so it is considered stolen goods.
Regards,
Katja Gamby from Copenhagen, Denmark (momentarily out of lurkdom)

that's covered by this statement, not the re-selling - apologies.
