I don't think you are going to find a good one in that price range.

Why do you open multiple threads for the same topic?

Maybe the person is hoping for different responses? I was puzzled on that myself.

Just get a VPS if you want to sell reseller packages. These "master resellers" are not going to be very stable. Think about it for a second, each master reseller sells reseller accounts and shared accounts. Each reseller from that master reseller sells shared accounts. Eventually the server becomes unstable.

You could start off as a normal reseller to make some money. Then, once you have enough for a VPS or dedicated server you could start providing master reseller hosting.

Agreed. If you can increase your budget to at least $40-$50 a month you could get a decent cPanel VPS. However, you won't be able to get 50GB space for that price.

I know what you're trying to say, but I don't see the direct link between an unstable server and master reseller software.
The same thing can happen with a traditional reseller setup. Take this example:
A host sells a bunch of reseller accounts. The resellers sell a bunch of shared accounts.
Following the above logic, it's even possible for that server to become unstable.
Simply put, regardless of if a server is utilizing the WHM Master Reseller plugin or not, it's the owner/operator of the server's responsibility to ensure that the server has plenty of available CPU Power, hard drive space, available RAM, etc.

Yes, but how many "companys" offering Master Reseller packages actually will be there in 6 months, let alone monitor their servers. I'm saying most of these master resellers are fly by night companys in the first place (not all of them) and I would not want to be on a master reseller package. Lets do some math now. Master reseller with 50GB HD for 10-20 dollars. How many of those do you think the person is going to have to sell to pay for the server?
I just don't think its a great idea going with the whole "master reseller" thing. Its just MHO and the only companys I have seen doing this are ones in the digital point forums. Then people come back a month or so later saying their sites down and slow all the time.

there are vps hosting packages that might just squeeze into that budget, but they are unmanaged and have a lesser known control panel.
