Since you start a business on the violation.

"Since when do I get sued for taking too many free samples from Costco?" -> "Since you started taking millions of them to resell"

im not sure on american law, but if you give me those samples willingly i can do whatever i want with them.

Actually this is the reason why many products come with the lable "not for resale" but i have yet to find somebody who cares about it :D

>give me those samples willingly
