There's no way that retailers will accept eating such a huge chunk of the sale just for the privilege of selling the games used. I'm sure it'll be WAY smaller for them, so as to strangle private sales and force people to go to the big stores.

The notion that they expect such a fee to be applied across the board makes the rumor seem highly suspect.

When faced with giving away a piece of royalty.......or blocking all used game sales entirely......it is a easy choice to make IMO.
