The limitations are for the license only, not the USB IDs. You can do with the USB IDs whatever you want.

It's OK to use the shared IDs for commercial products. In any case, you can't be USB compliant with our USB IDs because usb.org requires that you own the vendor-ID to be compliant.

Wait, $15 ?..

Can you define "non-commercial purposes" Does it exclude sales..As in if A hobbies wants to make a few and sell them?

Also what is this "shared VID/PID" Does this allow sales as well? I know an individual using this id and selling items.

You can buy V-USB Hobby licenses which come with a USB ID. It's more expensive than if somebody would sell USB IDs, but still viable.

The problem it seems that recently USB-IF actively started threatening usb-pid resellers with lawsuits. So most (if not all) have stopped selling ranges.

Can anyone here help me find a place to get PIDS? As a holiest I only need a small number of them. The sites I do find, claiming to sell them, turn out never to reply.
