I don't buy things to resell them. While I don't expect them to last forever, I expect them to last long enough for me to feel I've got my money's worth out of them. By the time I'm done with anything I buy, I don't expect anyone to want them. I still have a couple other old PC wheels hanging around collecting dust. They're not worth selling at this point. I'm pretty sure I could still plug those into my PC and continue using them however, so they still have some small value in that regard. I've already went down the road of buying hardware for the console because my current hardware was unsupported. I've gone down the "upgrade" road as well. I'm no longer willing to do so, for one, unproven game, from a producer who has yet to convince me they can provide an experience that is worth the cost.
