Dog people would you buy this type of collar? ?

I posted a few weeks ago about some cat bits I made and got great feedback so here I go again.

I am starting to do craft stalls with homemade pet bits and have made some collars up. These are made with strong polypropylene webbing, extra strong thread and strong welded D ring fittings so will and can handle a dog that pulls.

I am thinking of charging £7 for the 25mm collars and £5 for the 20mm collars.

If the fabric am using is licensed (some other products are using licensed harry Potter fabric) is that good to go with no copyright issues?

No, because you’re selling it on for a profit, not using it to make something for yourself or as a gift. For a charity bash you would probably get away with it. But you can’t use trademarked images to do your own business - presumably you chose those images specifically because they are recognisable and will therefor sell? Then the creator of that product deserves credit for the value they have added to your product.

No.

Fabric like that is generally sold for personal use - so you could buy it and make, for example, bedsheets for your daughter or a coat for your own dog, but you're not allowed to buy Disney fabric, make it into something new, and re-sell it to make a profit with permission.

There's a reason why official trademarked products (eg. bed-sets, t-shirts) cost a lot more than regular supermarket branded stuff - because they've got to pay for permission to use that trademark/image.
