I read up a bit just to see how it works. Simply put, you own no part of RR3, therfore you can't sell it. Both the seller and the buyer would be violating EA Terms of Service. Consider this quote from section 2;


 * "The EA Services are licensed to you, not sold. EA grants you a personal, limited,  non-transferable , revocable and non-exclusive license to use the EA Services to which you have access for your non-commercial use, subject to your compliance with this Agreement."

Section 6 is more clear:


 * " When you access or use an EA Service, you agree that you will not:  Sell, buy, trade or otherwise transfer or offer to transfer your EA Account , any personal access to EA Services, or any EA Content associated with your EA Account, including EA Virtual Currency and other Entitlements, either within an EA Service or on a third party website, or in connection with any out-of-game transaction, unless expressly authorized by EA."

(emphasis added mine)

If you profit from the sale of EA property you could be held liable since you sold what isn't yours. I doubt EA would hire lawyers for a small amount... but you never know! If this is a more prevelant problem you would not want to be the one that they make an example of.

The buyer would probably be in a worse place if anything ever want wrong and service by FM was required. They could see that some strange change took place at some point. I wouldn't be surprised if that buyer was forced to delete all data and start over, like what happens to currency hackers.

Technically speaking, you can't even give your profile away. So whenever your RR3 time comes up, you just walk away I guess.

Thanks, makes sense. Though unfortunate as I’ve put a lot of work and time into RR3 and it’s a shame for it to collect dust now, when it’d be of use to someone who’d appreciate and benefit from it.
