If there were an ability to resell on a secondary market it'd probably level out like you say. If you sell me something at a super low price, I can turn around and resell it for a typical price, which would usually level this out (effectively being more players in the market). But with todays "everything is a service" market with 50 pages of terms and conditions, it doesn't work.
