Carlsen approval for used books

Hi,

We are a reseller of used books and Amzaon asking approval from Carlsen to sell used books for this editor...But legally we don't need to ask approval from any editior to sell used books.

Nobody need editor approval to sell used books !

Hello @Seller_uN1ywb4LQfoym,

when checking the Amazon Intellectual Property Policy you can find this:

"Make sure only to sell products on Amazon’s EU stores which you have either imported yourself with the rights owner’s consent, or which you have sourced – directly or indirectly – from a supplier who has been authorized by the rights owner to import the products into the EEA (for example, a subsidiary of the rights owner or an authorized EEA distributor)."

There you will also find an example about books, so they are affected by this too:

"If you decide to sell a used copy of someone else’s book on Amazon in the EEA, you are selling someone else’s copyrighted work. If you bought the book from the publisher in the EEA or an authorized distributor, you are usually protected by the exhaustion principle. But if you, or your supplier or your supplier's supplier, bought the book outside the EEA, you are probably infringing copyright by reselling it in the EEA."

I hope this helps!

Best Regards,

Emma
