DR85: I build and sell computers on Amazon and eBay. I often think a good selling point is to throw in a few games with each machine.

I'd be interested to know if it would be within GOG's terms of service for me to buy games from the service and install them on the machines I sell. Obviously I'd need to buy the game again for each machine, rather than only paying once!

I guess that would mean setting up a GOG account for each machine I build.

Can't find anything solid in the terms of service about this other than a line in the user agreement that says the licences are "solely for your personal entertainment and non-commercial use"

Can anybody shed some light on the legalities of my idea?

Thanks in advance.
You can gift the buyer gift codes directly to their email address once they finalize the purchase. Just be sure to let them know how and when the codes will arrive.

Pheace: There's a really teeny, tiny line between this and resellers of GOG games on the infamous third party sites.
I'd rather have the OP gift the keys legally than worry about a potential buyer of his/her PC possibly reselling the codes :)

ZFR: Would buying the code to your own email, printing it and physically sending it with the machine be ok too? Just curious.
I am not sure but probably? That's getting into some nitty gritty territory lol.
