WA state.
I am interested in reselling used items, things you would find at Goodwill or other thrift stores. Simple enough, right?
The only difference is I want to put this merchandise in new packaging. In essence I want to resell used merchandise and promote my companie's name on the box. I'm not trying to claim any rights to the product being sold and I'm planning on having the box state that the content inside is used merchandise being resold. I'm not trying to hide anything.
Goodwill sells used merchandise but it doesn't put all of their stuff in packaging that says Goodwill. If anything they put a price tag on the item and that's it.
So what I invision is a little different.
My question is:
would the original company attempt to stop me for reselling their item like this, and do they have any right to.
Just to clarify - I am NOT trying to pass used items as new product.
This is more about a different way of promoting and displaying second hand merchandise, that's it.
