Items We Do Not Consign
Homesat Registration Packs and ABeka Video Manuals strictly prohibit resale. The copyright included in these packs designates them for personal use only and does not even allow them to be given away.
Software: Because of increased controversy over the resale rights of software, we will not be consigning used software at this time. According to the End User Agreements, which are actively accepted as part of the installation process, the rights to resell or even give away the license to use the software is prohibited.
This might be confusing, but when we buy software, we are actually only buying the license to "use" the software, we have not purchased the actual product. For instance, if you signed up for a class on cake decorating for yourself and paid $50.00, you could not invite other people to attend the class with you unless they also paid $50.00. With most software, you are allowed to use the license in your own home and sometimes on more than one personal computer, which is like paying $50.00 for the class for your whole family. However, you cannot sell or give that license away to another family.
There are appeals being made to certain companies about resale rights , but until the matter is settled, we will not be consigning most used software. This includes, Rosetta Stone, Switched on Schoolhouse, DIVE, etc. Most people are surprised by this and that is understandable. Please read each EULA carefully. If your license agreement allows for resale, please make a copy of it and bring it with you and we will happily sell it for you.
Thanks so much for allowing us to sell your materials for you.
Please call the store for details about mailing in consigment materials.
