I would think if the account has been sold, the buyer would contact Theymos to dispute the claim. There would be a record of the sale in PM's. All we would see is a thread like this.

Maybe this is why some people aren't getting their accounts back? (not accusing anyone in particular)

You're right there would be a record of a sale of a account from someone* not the actual account holder.

The user who sell these accounts use a new account and they advertise that they're selling. After they have sold,  they can make another new account and come back here saying that someone hacked into their account and sold it.

Friends seem to me that you are exaggerating a little bit .. Why would anyone buy me an account he can do it alone? .. Especially that my account was not so big I only had 40 posts

An answer to what? You can either prove you own the account, or you can't.

If you can prove it as outlined above, and you did send a signed message, then read this. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=660156.msg7637780#msg7637780

The thread that BadBear linked you to contains explicit instructions on how to recover a lost account. Following those instructions is the only way that you can regain access to your account. Theymos does not want you to reply from your e-mail address because there is a chance that it had already been compromised as well. A proof of ownership of a Bitcoin address that you -- the "original owner" -- have previously claimed to have singular access to before the account was "hacked" is the only proof that Theymos needs.

To further simplify things, consider this example. Let's say that you sent Theymos a PM containing a Bitcoin address that you have ownership of a long time ago. For the sake of simplicity, let's say that the Bitcoin address was 1AccountIsMine1234. If you can link back to that PM, then you can prove that you, the "original owner," owns that address. Having proved that you owned 1AccountIsMine1234, you can then digitally sign a message using that address, thereby proving that you also own the account.

E-mail replies and Bitcoin addresses that have not been previously claimed by you are not valid because there is no way to prove or disprove that you are the original owner from only those. It's a chicken-and-egg kind of thing -- you either need the chicken or the egg first. In your case, you have neither.
