Thread: Promo DVDs

  1. #1

    Default Promo DVDs

    I have a handful of promo DVDs given away free by The Sunday Times

    Am I allowed to list them on here or is it rather frowned on or forbidden (haven't looked at the listing guidelines, thought it would be quicker to ask on here)

    Or would it be better to just take them down to my local charity shop

    Thanks in advance

    I don't know what the rules are, but I've bought an audio book CD on here that was from a paper originally.

    They are sold on here and I am not aware of any specific rule against doing so.

    They are usually marked as 'Not for Resale'. If that statement has any legal standing (I have no idea if it has) then technically the rule that the 'selling of an item is legal in the eyes of the law' could come into play.

    As long as you clearly identify the source of the item and state that it was originally given away free then I don't see it as a problem.

    I've bought them here on ebid
    & enjoyed the ones i bought.
    I can't imagine why they would
    not be allowed to be sold on ebid?
    Cd's are sold on, and don';t they have some sort
    of copyright control which bans follow on sales?

    I cannot see an issue with them as I have had a NPB with some so I contacted admin and they didn't indicate that these type of items were not allowed.

    I currently have 160+ of them up for sale in my charity shop.
