Conditions attached to PLR purchases.

    On several occasions I've noted that on downloading purchased PLR material, that the vendor has attached a file containing various conditions about what I can and can't do with the material.

    Too late! Any attempt to impose conditions on a deal must be floated before the purchase is completed, so that the intending buyer has an opportunity to accept or reject such terms.

    My understanding is that any attempt to impose conditions on a purchase after payment and delivery of goods involved would have no substance whatever.

    It seems to be appropriate to give an airing to this point in case there are buyers of PLR material out there who may feel un-necessarily constrained about making full use of their purchase.

    Anyone know anything different?

    Usually when you buy something, you're automatically accepting the terms.

    By any chance was there a "terms of service" page on the site? It's your responsibility to go read before you buy.

    I agree, however, that it's smarter to put the terms on the sales page. That way, there's no denying that they were made available and the buyer could have/should have read them prior to purchase.

    No Julie, ... it appears that only the big players online (eg. Adobe) have enough 'know-how' (or maybe enough technical ability) to do this.

    Anyway, thanks for the comment.
