However, I have found several brand new releases available as Used Books. Why? Not necessarily because the seller is a fast reader, but because the books they are selling were Advanced Reading Copy books, which were given to them for free.

Also, selling stripped books is an illegal practice, yet several dealers available on Amazon's site are making money from books the publisher and author never received sales on in the first place.

Again, before the flames start flying, let me assert that having used books available for backlist and out-of-print is one thing; ARCs and stripped books is another entirely!
