Morphology

remarket = market (semi-transparent) = re + market

The basic idea 'market again' is clear, but this sense is a specialized commercial use referring to resale through secondary channels.

Etymology

Remarket is formed from the prefix re- meaning 'again' and market meaning 'a place to buy and sell'. So to remarket returned, used, or off-lease items is to sell them 'again', often through auctions, dealers, or other specialist channels.
