Perhaps. On the other hand, the consumer has traditionally been responsible for the proper disposal of waste. Yet we know that they don't take that responsibility, even if it's as simple as separating used batteries from the normal waste stream.I think it is the responsability of the owners to offer working equipment for free/sale before it goes to a recycler.
Alas, people often need the state to do stuff for them because they are either ill informed or to lazy to do it themselves. And if that is reselling reusable material, so be it.
