I know this isn’t the subject of your class, but I’m wondering if this guy is kicking anything back to Apple for using their trademark…
Josh - I think you’re a rockstar for organizing and promoting this. This is a great way for people to make a few spare $. Thank you.
Trademark is to protect identity. I doubt he’s pretending it’s an Apple computers product. Associating with a product for compatibility is completely legit.
Like Corter Leather just released a leather project for Zippo lighters.
You don’t have to pretend it’s -some company’s- product. Selling something with someone else’s IP can open you up to liability.
You can make a shirt with Mickey ears and wear it to Disney (when they re-open) and they don’t care. Sell a few hundred on Etsy and the C&D letter will be inbound.
Yeah, but Disney is notorious for guarding their stuff. I am not even sure that they would let you in the gates with a handmade shirt.
This is clearly not the case. It is “nominative fair use”.

Let’s open another thread if you wish to continue. Focus of this one is @Josh_Melnick 's exciting class.
I just saw this thread on the weekly DMS email thread. Is there any chance you’ll be hosting again? I’ve just started cleaning up and listing old tools.
Hope to see the class again soon!!
Yes! I started another thread for eBay class #2
Got it! Thanks.

Thanks Josh for teaching class. I have used Ebay in the past, but you showed me how to significantly improve sells. Please teach it again soon. I know friends that benefit.
