- Sorry, but I think the upgrade license agreements for most products
- are such that you don't have the right to sell your old copies
- (that is, you bought a copy of Microsoft Word. If you upgrade
- you still only have one copy, and can't sell the old one). Thus,
- asking someone to sell you a copy after they upgrade is pretty
- close to asking them to make a copy for you.
