As long as this is true and I can continue to trade in games to gain the funds to purchase new games then I have little to no issues with the XBone.

As I post a bit ago. I think if they go with the "big fee" that Phil Harrison hinted at. Microsoft will have a program for its retail partners that have used games that would be used to make sure ownership of the title is wiped from the system, and then Gamestop etc will be free to resell the game at full price and when Live indicates the code, which will be burnt on the disc since that is already there, is used again they will bill Gamestop for an extra copy. The problem is they will be selling the used games as new. (They were doing that before.)

I am curious to know how will that affect trade-in values and will this still allow selling of games outside of retail chains? For example, if I want to sell my game on eBay since it brings in much more money than a Gamestop trade-in. These things are very important to me. I don't want to be handcuffed to all these companies.

Yeah it will be one of two things. Either Microsoft since they don't have to print anouther disc will give a bigger cut of the resold produt, this will keep trade in values about the same, other wise the trade in value will fall flat along with the XBO's grey market.
