I was looking for an old database I was using long ago on eBay. One of the items found was LibreOffice.  A seller was selling LibreOffice for $12.95. Should they be doing this? It seems to me he is profiting off of your work. Also, they are taking advantage of people that are unaware LibreOffice is free.

Personally, I find this to be unscrupulous. He is taking advantage your programmers work.

This is the URL to their eBay page: https://www.ebay.com/str/graceworksmm

I have been using LibreOffice before dirt was made and feel a bit guilty. I am not able to make a donation. I live in a nursing home and have no money anymore. LibreOffice is wonderful and even if I could afford Microsoft Office I would keep using LibreOffice I tried to get the nursing home to switch from Microsoft Office to LibreOffice, but the company that administers their computers won't allow it. They must profit from Microsoft products. The home finally got them to allow them to buy their computers from other sources. I will try the switch away from Microsoft again.

Thanks so much for providing such an _*incredible *free _product.

(1) The item for sale seems to be something physical ... a USB drive ... as it will be physically be shipped (mailed) to the buyer? (2) The version offered seems to be rather old ... may not work on modern systems?
(3) Value?  I really don't see any, but maybe to someone
I remember the first RetHat's were available for sale on CD's at most computer stores.
I remember I paid quite a bit for a set of StarOffice to run on an Apple IIe

Interesting Jog alone memory lane, eh?

Be well and take good care of yourself
