Quick question, I am abit confused when it comes to resell rights and master resell rights and stuff, but if I buy an ebook that comes with resell rights, can I give it away as a bonus?

    Some you can, some you can not.
    You'll have to reference the agreement for the book. I've seen it go both ways.

    You should never make an assumption based on the type of rights you have. Always refer to the license that comes with the product for exactly what you can do with it.
    Also, you should keep this license for future reference - you'll never know when you may need to refer back to it.

      Thanks alot for the help.

      One of the ebooks, at the very end it tells you what you can and cannot do, but the other one didnt. I just sent them an email to see what they say.

      I am wondering if I am supposed to remove that end part on the first one?

      It says:
      Congratulations...
      You now own the resell and master resell rights to this product. It may only be sold under the following reseller licence terms & conditions:
      [YES] Can Sell Without Rights
      [YES] Can Sell With Basic Resell or Master Resell Rights
      [YES] Can be packaged with other paid products
      [YES] Can be offered as a bonus with other paid products
      [YES] Can be included in a paid membership site

      Should I just leave it in? I am not selling it as a "resell" thing, just a bonus.

        If you can offer it as a bonus with Resell Rights or Master Resale Rights then it may have more value as a bonus. But Istvan is right if you don't want to pass on any resell rights then make a new licence for personal viewing rights only.

    If you offer it just as a bonus - make a new License for it and say "it is for personal use only", then put the license file in the zipped downloadable package.
