It is upsetting...

to see so many to be parting with the 1 in such a short time...

I feel like every day I see more and more getting rid of this little beast...

(granted the economy blows so it is also 100% understandable)

sad isn't it?

It just allows others that really do want the 1 to get it at a cheaper price than buying new... The glass is always half full.

I'm not sure where you're seeing it. Are they showing up more frequently on the used car market? I guess the big question is whether the rate of new-owner bail is any higher than for similar cars. The 1 isn't cheap and times are very tough, but, on the other hand, this car appeals across a wider spectrum of buyers than say a 370, which is aimed more specifically at young males. Over here I see more and more 1s on the road every day, so I know they are selling steadily.
