well gecko, basicly with your price range, and I do belive your looking at 30/month correct? If so, I know personally from my company we offer this below post, I wouldnt recommend settling for anything other then this:

10 GB Disk Space
100 GB Transfer
Unlimited Domains
Unlimited FTP Accounts
Unlimited Email Accounts
Unlimited Databases
Cpanel + Fantastico
Client Exec
7.50 Domain Reseller Account
Free Setup
Our Price - $25.00

Thats In many of my clients opion is a heck of a deal. however, when your ordering make sure that you do look for something that will allow you to host as much databases,emails,ftps,and domains as you want.. This will help you in your searches for a hosting company. Also I recommend running a testing file off the company, to make sure speeds are good. Dont wanna waste money on something thats no good.

Erm....you should just look for the features you want, right? I mean, you should get what you want to resell. X.x

you need to find a reseller that you can garantuee that you will be able to make a profit on, so possibally spending less when you start up, and upgrading your package as you get more clients, this will also save you money. you DO NOT need 10gig diskspace a month if you are only hosting 5 or so people with 1 gig packages, go small and upgrade as you get more people. this will also allow you to go for EVEN bigger packages in the future, bought with your profit.

I agree. You do not really need to speed needless money when it's not going to be used anyway. It'd be like throwing money away.

But the bad thing is, sometimes upgrades are available per gig and well, the price is a bit outrageous sometimes

i would reccomend resellerzoom.com or varhosting.net start of with a small plan then move up when u need to.

I would like to suggest you that before going for any reseller package check whether the Hosting company is RELIABLE, reputed, 24/7 tech support, 24 hour live chat & phone support,good uptime & quality.
