No, but sadly I buy used games since my income is too low for most new releases.

 

That is even worse IMO. You are giving your money away and the people behind the game get nothing.

 

yeah I believe this too.

This is exactly the same as piracy, but worse as people who did nothing profit from it. (in france a 60€ new game is often 50€ used in store...)

moreover, this is probably a reason why price often declines very fast for some titles (could get PoP for 17£ new on amazon a month after release...).

Hell, I don't buy games first day anymore (almost) because of prices decreasing so quickly....
