Ack!! I just bought a bunch of Winter Promise stuff, then heard "no re-sell"...

[jejily]

So... just to clarify ... (for myself... because I have WP's QAW IG, bought only it, not the whole package deal, and would like to sell it when we're finished with the year)...

 

On their IG guide they say, "We do not allow resales."

 

It does not say, "We ask (or prefer or request) that you do no resell our IG."

 

They emphatically state: No Resales.

 

But... technically, they cannot state that, because it is not legal? Or, rather, they can state it, but they have no legal leg to stand on, and it cannot legally be enforced?

 

(Ethically, whether I should sell or not based on their request is a discussion for another time.) :D

Technically it is not illegal for them to state that, freedom of speech and all, but IMHO it's unethical. I think it's unethical for them to state that because it implies incorrectly that they have a legal right to expect that you won't resell it even though you are 100% within your legal right to do so. They are purposely misleading you about your rights to benefit them.

I think if they said 'it is against the law to resell this IG', then that would be illegal. As it is, it's just unethical.
