: : : : If I were to buy a book or cd retail and then put it in a package with other items for resale would I need permission to do so ?? Would I be breaking any laws by doing so without permission ? : : : Dear Damarys, : : : Without taking professional responsibility, the only exposure I can think of is sales tax. : : : M.

If you don't copy, I don't think there is a problem. : M. Arthur Auslander : Auslander & Thomas-Intellectual Property Law Since 1909 : 505 Eighth Avenue, New York, NY 10018 : 212-594-6900, fax 212-244-0028, aus@auslander.com : ELAINE's Workshop® : E arly L egal A dvice I s N ot E xpensive™ : Reality Check® Let me clarify a little.....If I put together gift baskets and need a book on a specific topic or a cd with a certain song on it to carry out the tehme of the basket,and I run to the local book store or music store and buy one retail and then put it in a gift basket to be sold would that pose a problem? Example...a customer calls and says "my friends just had to put their dog to sleep...they had the dog since it was a puppy and it was very hard on them. Can you put together a basket for them?" I run to the local bookstore and by a copy of a book on grieving the death of a pet and put it in the basket and ship it off will I get in trouble for buying the book and putting it in the basket and reselling it ??
Thank you for your help in figuring this out....
