Actually, no you don't, not unless the designer stipulates specifically that through the purchase you acquire all resell rights. In the real world, creative work isn't sold on an ownership basis.

For example, 90% of the ownership rights for advertisments you see on TV belong to the companies who made the adverts, not the company of the product/service they are advertising.
