If you own a kill right you can chose to sell the right to other pilots; in order to do so you select the kill right you wish to sell. On opening the kill right you will see three option buttons which allow you to select who you make the right available to all pilots, just your corp or a specific named character, alliance or corporation other than your own. If you have offered a kill right for sale and it is accepted by another pilot the ISK will be transferred to the kill right owner immediately irrespective of whether a kill is made or not.  It is also acceptable to make the kill right open without any cost implication however there is nothing to stop the offending pilot getting a friend or an alt to kill him in a starter frigate to clear the kill right.

Warning: Some unscrupulous capsuleers may have a friendly kill them in order to get a kill right and sell it for a very high price in order to make further money from victimsExample : Code. would have 50,000,000 ISK kill right on a fellow Code. in order to make further money from miners and people they have grieved.
The Kill Right "Scam".  You will notice some pilots sitting at gates, or travelling on autopilot, or sitting outside stations with a kill right available on them and looking like unbelievable targets of opportunity.  You'll more than often not find that the activation cost for these are extremely high (usually in the hundreds of millions, into the billions, though sometimes much less).  They are often in ships that would be juicy on your killboard, or look easy to kill.  What they have done is simply illegally aggressed an alt (or sometimes a trusted friend) using a Rookie Ship.  The alt earns the kill right.  The idea here is that someone will pay to activate the kill right and the alt earns the ISK for the pilot with the kill right available.  They often have their ship insured and are in a position to easily evade your attack and get away (such as jumping the gate, or docking up), or they just don't care if they lose the shipNo matter what, the pilot with the kill right earns the ISK, and often you don't have a kill, and if you do, it's often against a hilariously cheap or even non-fit ship.
 
Be especially aware that if they are sitting on a station this may be part of a ruse to get you to activate the kill right and attack them.  They'll dock-up and reship into something that will burn you down.  They get your ISK and a kill against you. They operate very similar to others who sit as flashy suspects on stations.
