Buy from one retailer to sell on my own retail website?
I recently contacted a manufacturer whose products I wanted to sell on a drop-shipping basis or perhaps hold small quantities of stock. They replied to me stating that they don't do drop-shipping and that I currently do not meet their distribution criteria so they cannot supply me. I have seen their products on some websites at the RRP and on others at 25-30% off the RRP. I was wondering if it would be a good idea to list all their products on my website for the RRP and simply buy them from the cheapest retailers when I get an order. Would this be permissible? Would I be breaking any laws by doing this? How about the stock images? I could take the images from the manufacturers website, but would I then be in breach of copyright? Should I contact the manufacturer first to let them know what I plan to do?
Thanks in advance.
