I don't think you can resell Bentley product licenses...

As Oto mentioned, it always depends on area/country. In EU it's allowed (based on several processes similar to that Oto linked) to transfer owned software license (I guess including OEM) to another user, regardless what EULA says. And it's not allowed to SW producer to restrict this option.

Of course there are a bunch of conditions and requirements, e.g. it has to be ensured the original owner does not use the software anymore and he removed all copies. Also, it's not possible to sell / transfer only a part of the software, which has to be applied no only to SW modules, but also to SW multilincses. So when a company buy e.g. 100 licenses of Office as special package for special price, it cannot sell 50 from them. But when it bought 100 individual licenses over several years, that's fine.
