So they can sue you if you resell, but they don’t have to buy it back if they don’t want to. A prime example of anti-competitive behavior in effort to control competition in the secondary market and to manipulate market prices. They aren’t even afraid of anti-trust lawsuits. I’m also guessing they anticipate this product is going to be a failure if they’re willing to take such a risky position.
