Hi
I am wondering about ebooks. Do you just browse the net and buy them and then sell on on ebay? Is there any limit to re sale like copyright? Does anyone have a good supplier they would like to share?!

Unless the e-book you purchase comes with permission to sell copies on eBay, then you would breach copyright by doing so. Even in the unlikely event of the copyright having expired on the text itself (i.e. if its author died over 50 years ago!) the typographical arrangement would still be subject to copyright.
You can either look for e-books sold specifically for resale, write your own, or type out something so old it's out of copyright (e.g. ancient recipes) and sell as an e-book. Don't expect to get rich selling e-books, though!0 -
