Not at all. That household chose to buy it. Unless the terms are "no

including what they paid, more, or less, and not be in breach.

Intewrestingly, a vast majority of IP protected works do Not allow
resale (without prior written consent from the publisher).

From my copy of Asimov's Foundation: "This book is sold subject to the
condition that it shall not, by way of trade or otherwise, be lent,
re-sold, hired out or otherwise circulated without the publisher's
prior consent"

So the used bookstore I bought my copy from (and the person who sold
it to the store, I assume) were violating the terms of that
"contract" ?  Cute.

Hardly enforcable, but cute.
