Alright, would anyone consider buying a plan like this:
$1.50 gets you 1GB Transfer and 75mb Space w/CPanel
I'm looking to get into the reseller market, and am looking for a few resellers to sort of "go in" with me.
This is not a special offer...I'm just looking for other resellers to go in with me so I can get started...
As a reseller looking for a host, would you purchase a plan like this?

It would be on a Linux based box(Redhat 7.2)..
Most likely with Raid Configured Harddrives ...possibly Dual P3

Not a bad price, but consider this:
Resellers can sell their space at low prices to match this, with more space and bandwidth - I've had customers with 350MB for $3 per month before.
I'd suggest you explore the reseller option before spending any hard earnt cash on your own equipment.
I know it's not the same as owning your own equipment, but it is far less stress/aggrevation trying to keep the server upto date with the latest software etc, and less cost.

Too cheap. You get what you pay for.
I'm not saying that we should all be paying $10 / MB, but at the same time if anyone is giving away resources then there is no quality behind the quantity.

To elaborate, if you resold for this host you are considering, would you then be able to offer your customers:
High redundancy and rapid response maintenance and repair ensuring almost zero downtime.
Secure, powerful and reliable hosting on Linux servers with UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) and diesel generator power backup in a secure facility, with access controlled using biometric hand scanners and military grade pass cards.
HVAC (Heating Ventilation Air Conditioning) system and backup system to ensure that all air is circulated and filtered every 90 seconds to remove dust and contaminants from the data centre, and an advanced fire-suppression system is in place to prevent any fire from spreading - in the unlikely event that one could start.
Daily backups, Full technical support, Detailed site statistics, Control Panel, SSH (Secure Shell)
Access your files by FTP or using the secure web based file manager
Access your e-mail by POP3, IMAP or using the the powerful SSL Secure Web Mail with its impressive range of features, including automatic backup folder, powerful and customisable spam filtering and online attachment viewing: Text, HTML, MS Word, MS Excel, RTF, PDF, WMF, CSV, TIFF, JPEG, GIF
