Buying Content For My Site

    I have searched high and low for Nintendo cheats for my site. I have not found a site that allows you to use their cheats. I went on eBay and found tons of people selling cheats. I am going to buy them for my site. What if the person I bought them from ripped them from other sites and the other sites come knocking on my door to take the cheats down?

    Not sure what you are asking, but you would have to take them down if the person who sold them to you didn't have the rights to sell them. It doesn't matter if you took them or someone else did. As far as getting your money back, I guess it would depend on the seller. You should check with the seller before you buy and see what they say about their origin and resale rights.

    According to the seller all cheats are public domain.

    Well.. erm cheats are issued by the game makers (Unless its a EXE cheat, aka trainer ect).. so yeah I think that sounds right.
