But if you think buying on the secondhand market doesn't impact the market, why do you think buying from the OEM does?

It's one phone's worth of demand either way.

Nobody is buying pixels specifically to resells them. If anything there fast reduction in value makes them less attractive.

First hand = money goes directly to Google including margin

Second hand = money only goes towards a private person, 0$ for google. At best it prevents usable phones being thrown into landfill.
