If you had tried to resell a single sticker that you bought legally – a sticker that wasn`t applied to a new product you created – I think you`d be standing on much stronger ground. The use of these marks in advertising imagery conveys a sense of legitimacy, and it is therefore understandable that a rightholder has the right to control when and how a reseller can use them.

Some of these box inventories obviously have multiple pkgs of the same items (i.e. coffee cups, double sheets, ugly placemats, etc.) that I am not interested in. Can I legally sell these types of items on Craigslist or in the LetGo app? Or do you donate it to places like Goodwill?
