Re: Register a brand
If you register a brand name you do not own, there can be legal consequences.
Your plan is flawed, not only because it is shady, but because you are expecting this other seller to just go away. And they may be tied to the brand owner, you cannot tell that from a USPTO record.
Why not buy something generic and come up with your own brand name? You can't stop others from selling the same generic item, but if you create your own brand name, then you will be the only one who can use the name.
