Is it possible to sell a used MMO game?

I have the CE of Warhammer Online.  I no longer play and have uninstalled it from my PC.  Is it possible to sell this item on Amazon after I have used it?  I'm not trying to get much, I'm just going to throw it away if I can't get a few bucks.

    Heh, I'm not too sure but a lot of people sell accounts still. I know you don't need the disk to trade those, but I'm guessing it could go along w/ the package. I doubt anyone will buy your WAR account though.

    Plus, I think the registration key you used for it might be long gone, so they might not be able to even use it.

    Not here. Read the rules of conduct.

    He wasn't going to sell it here, just asking if he could sell the disk on Amazon.  Most games have a 'CD Key' on them, this is one time, once it used it is gone... Kind of like a gift card or Itunes code if you have used one of those.  Although you can still sell the physical disk, which contains the files for the game, you can't sell the game if that makes sense.  You can sell the files but they are useless without the key that you already used.

     short answer.. No

    That's what I figured , thanks for the answer.  Also, thanks for being able to read my original message correctly.  Apparently it is more difficult than what I thought. lol
