Selling a DirecTV Receiver

I want to sell a DirecTV receiver but DirecTV told me that I can't sell it with the access card and that the buyer would have to buy a new access card. Has anyone sold a receiver before and worked around this issue. This sounds ridiculous to me and would make the idea of buying a used receiver a bad one especially with new ones selling for next to nothing.

you probablt have an old system with an H card, that is Hackable. And they want to swap that card back, to give them a new HU card (not hackable yet)

The hacking of H cards, is easy, even if they put an ECM out to zap your BIN #, within a hour a new Bin 1 is posted to the internet and you just go download it, and open the e3 hole and unloop the card and your back up in 20min.
