Re: GIMP on EBAY

This is specifically allowed under the terms of the GNU General Public 
License.
Form the GPL FAQ:

*Does the GPL allow me to sell copies of the program for money?*

    Yes, the GPL allows everyone to do this. The right to sell copies is
    part of the definition of free software. Except in one special
    situation, there is no limit on what price you can charge. (The one
    exception is the required written offer to provide source code that
    must accompany binary-only release.)
