I think is literally the first sale doctrine in a nutshell.
You don't get to say what someone does with your product once you sell it. They're free to resell it as their own service.
- fzeroracer 6y agoWell no, you can't. This isn't a matter of them reselling your product, this is them impersonating your business and acting like an official partner. Not only that, but they're passing down all liability back down to you (eg if the food is cold or if there are delivery issues) for something you never approved of. If Grubhub acted like a reseller and took on the associated obligations you'd be correct. But they don't. So first sale doctrine does not apply.
- ikiris 6y agoPretty sure both doordash and grubhub make it very clear they are doordash / grubhub and doing things for you, instead of pretending to be the restaurant that is making your food. They also in fact do not pass on the liability, but frequently make me whole when the food is not up to standard. Have you even used doordash or are you just trying to bash them?
