Sometimes I use php classes I wrote myself to acheive someones desired effect so why should I let that person resell it without consulting me.
I did mention this only applies to larger scripts and systems, small scripts don't really concern me. But I always ask for the above reason. If someone needs a script that will do a job and it is for their use and I have code already that can do it I can/will code for a much lower price.
However if someone wants a script that is exclusive to them and they hold the rights and can do what they want with it, then yeah I will be charging slightly more to cover my time.
It works the other way aswell, I have done many scripts for a fraction of the price if the person was happy for me to resell it or use it as part of another system. I am not just expecting my client to tell me their intentions, I state mine aswell. I just find it better to know whats happening from the start.
Anyway this is only my opinion.
