No.
high rated
Short answer:
no.

Still short but more to the point:
Not within the GOG Terms of Service, and it would not be in any way shape or form supported by GOG or your GOG account, and if you got caught doing so you would probably lose your GOG account and most likely have a monkey fly out of your rectum and force you to apologize to GOG.

Longer answer:
As with (almost) all Digital Distribution services, once you have purchased a game it is tethered to your account, permanently. You could, in theory, have GOG remove a game from your account if you really really wanted, but you could not in turn have them give it to another person's account.

However, as GOG is DRM free there is nothing physically stopping you from trading the installers of your games with someone else, on the honor system that you were going to uninstall it and never play it again, and so would they. However doing so directly violates the GOG Terms of Service, and would additionally be copyright violation and illegal in many countries (the distribution of copyrighted materials without the proper rights to distribute).

Besides, GOGs games are really cheap, and buying them supports an awesome company who is fighting the evils of the DRM monster.

Thanks for the illumination. I never knew that before, since i never read the ToS in every games i bought. Ain't Nobody Got Time for That.

Well i guess im not doing it, since i appreciate what gog.com fight against DRM Monsters and I enjoyed the games i mentioned before, some of them even brought tears to my eyes.

Well anyway thanks, and have a great weekend!

HEY!!! Monkeys do not fly out of people's rectums! Stop being prejudice against monkeys. That kind of stuff only happens in movies.

Sorry, I just needed to make an 'anal-dwelling butt monkey' reference somewhere, and it fit. ;)

For all the chest pumping GOG-ers tend to do about DRM, it seems the perceived 'consumer right' that you should be able to trade/sell/give away the games you own is one right GOG-ers have no problems giving up :)

With DRM free digital distribution, anything else becomes so easy to abuse it's not even funny, and many people would.

Hmmm, yeah basically what Zolgar said. Personally I'd feel more comfortable if you edited your post and erased your collections, but that's certainly your choice. I suspect you didn't know any better, but it is essentially piracy.

Because:

- asking you not to do something (and you agreeing with that request)

and

- putting up technical restrictions that may also have some other unwanted ramifications (like that you will be unable to play your purchased game at all at some point, or several other things)

are not really the same thing at all? But I'm sure you still don't get it.

I'm personally fine with the request that I wouldn't sell or trade my digitally purchased games, it just means that I would hardly ever pay 50+ € for such games that I can't (or am asked not to) trade away after use. Fine by me, someone else might disagree.

So you want to sell your used game collections? in exchange for the cyberpunk/steampunk collection? you can't sell it here. must gamer's here have that titles and they have way much more, so you'll just be disappointed. Just buy the games that you want. GOG is on holiday sale and all titles are cheap.
