Resell rights

[exculiber]

How do you determine whether the so called resell rights of an ebook for instance is legitimate or not? I have been encountering sales men online offering resell rights.

The most conclusive way is to contact the author of the book and find out if he/she gave rights to someone to give right to others.

And you do have to be careful because if you sell or publish someone else's work without their consent, you are stealing their work.

It is not possiible to say - well so and so said this or that.

There are multiple licenses offered for a resell rights product, in this case an ebook.

1. Resell Rights - If you are buying one of these licenses for an ebook, it is usually sold by the author himself/herself for you to resell it.Thats about it. You cannot offer the book for resellin rights to your customers.

2. Private Label Rights - You buy the plr ebook and re-edit and re-write it for reselling. You can claim authorship for this book once you have done enough alterations to it. And you can offer your customers to resell the book.

3. Master Resell Rights - This is the type of license everyone's after but very limited in the market today. This is where the original author does not the rights and sell it you and in turn you sell it to others and others to others.Get it? In short you can practically do anything with it but they come with different terms from different MRR providers.BTW,The licenses does not come cheap.

Hope that gives everone an idea.

A great feature and will no doubt answer many questions relating to this subject. I would just add that anyone should sift out the hype attached to some paid for resell rights. We do not believe it is right that anyone should make wild promises, but the majority who do often put a disclamer in the hype. As boring as it sounds we just cut to the chase

Speak with the owner of whatever are you buying and he will confirm it.
