Help understanding the Extended License

Hi,

I am interested in buying a PHP script using the extended License, that I plan on modifying, to include roughly 3 extra features not originally in the script.

My question is, does this allow me to then resell the script (either on codecanyon or elsewhere)?

I ask this because in the Envato Wiki, this line: Items purchased under a regular or extended license may NOT be redistributed or resold “as-is” or as part of any other collection of image resources or files. is what is confusing me on what I am allowed to do.

Thank you.

Thank you for the response. I was not thinking to resell a script “as-is”, but as you said, in a project I was starting. I just wanted to cover all my bases.

The extended license will allow you to implement the item into one of your projects, and then resell it. Please note that this does not mean that I can buy a CodeCanyon script, and then immediately try to sell it, without modifications, on CodeCanyon myself. As an example, you could buy a menu from CodeCanyon, add it to a new site template, and then sell it on ThemeForest!

Agreed. The way I see, the answer is no. JeffreyWay, his project IS the project…lol.

I too would really like to understand the pricing model here, I understand the professional pricing model that this company has chosen to apply here, but not the compensatory model.

In other words, the object is to make money right? or is that some secondary afterthought?

You see as a developer, you can very quickly and easily reproduce almost any code based application at a fraction of the cost that your model calls for, which tells me one thing it is not working.

Not for you and not for your clients or customers.

This makes Zero sense to me as a customer or a client.

Why not compete, because as it is your not doing that, I can go on just about any service and compete, at half the cost of your over priced model.

This over priced model that you have adopted will never succeed because of your competition, even odesk runs at half the cost.

If you really want to see this extended license model work you will have to compete and that means a pricing model that works for both your clients and your customers clients.

So far I dont see that working and none of the service providers have seen it succeed either.

Just saying, perhaps its time to take a second look at the extended pricing model

Honestly, none of this really answered my question.

Thanks though!

I May Be A Little Late Here But, As JeffreyWay Stated… You Can Buy The Extended Version Modify It Or Don’t And Put It Into Your Own Project To Be Sold. So…You Have To Have It With Something You Made Yourself Or It’s Copyright Infringement I Think =-) Hope That Helped.
