Whilst resell rights give you the right to resell the product, Master Resell Rights (MRR) gives you the right to resell the product AND pass on the resell rights to your customer.
Your customer, in turn, can also offer resell rights to their customer but not Master Resell Rights if the originator does not allow this, so it stops there i.e. the Master Resell Rights were only offered by the originator to the first buyer.
