Scam ? I don't follow your reasoning ? Are you saying that every company that resells services is a scam ?

You should be a little more coherant while posting here on WHT ;-) .

Anonymously, I dont think so! One can always lookup IP ownership, etc!

Mike of WA had a post about bulk reselling dedicated servers in the Dedicated Special Offers forum!

clocker was thinking that you are going to purchase a dedicated server at regular price and resell at a markup price which IS scamming, although if you can sell it cheaper than the company sells it regularly, that wouldn't be considered scamming.

From previous posts I've read, they seem very repuatable and Mike seems like a nice guy.

They seem like an okay choice...:)

I wouldn't do that since it would not make much business sense. I tend to disagree with you though......If I lease a dedicated server from say VO and I lease it to someone else for $100 more than what I pay for it........that would not be scamming, that would be smart.

I dont think it would be considered scamming if they remove a setup fee for a higher monthly price, or provided managment for the server beyond what the original company does.

I think any company that set up an affiliate program for selling dedicated servers would make a killing.

There's TONS of resellers out there that would LOVE to put a "click here for dedicated" link on their site and make some money. Most people would expect $50 per signup or more. (Considering that it's one signup you WOULDN'T have received if it wasn't for the reseller.)

If anyone has an affiliate program like this, then post it in the offers forums and you'll see the interest appear.
