I think the point is that as far as resale is concerned, a used K3 is worth 
less than a new K3. Why is that a surprise? In what way is that different 
from the car or HDTV or computer that I just bought?  All drop in value the 
minute I drive or carry them away from the showroom. They carry a warranty 
that is probably worth more to me as the original purchaser than to someone 
I sell them to. And who knows what I might have broken that causes me to 
want to sell it. :)  

A guy who bought a K3 a few months ago, uses it for a while and wants to 
sell it, is dreaming if he thinks he can sell it for what he paid for it. 
That might have been true when there was a six month waiting list, but 
those days are gone. :)
