I have noticed that there are a lot of companies do provides both reseller and VPS packages. Why? I think that it is actually the same in space and bandwidth.

The main thing in VPS hosting is the limit of hosting accounts on a server. In VPS hosting there are max 15-20 accounts on a server whereas in reseller hosting there are more than 100 accounts on a server

With a VPS you have more freedom on usage resources.

The important point is that a VPS gives you an isolated OS environment and (potentially) guaranteed system resources at your disposal. These factors mean that you’re far less likely to be affected by rouge scripts, IP blacklisting etc. caused by other accounts on the physical server; a reseller account is just as bad as any other shared hosting in these aspects.

I beg to differ – their VPS plans are all completely unmanaged, and therefore there’s a good chance they’re not suitable for the needs of many resellers since it would theoretically require the reseller to have 24/7 staffing to correct any problems which may occur (including the appropriate technical knowledge too!).
