I offered CDs for $5 US on craigslist, and I explained that the five
dollars was for round trip subway fare in New York City, plus a cup of
coffee while we talked about ubuntu.<br>

<pre wrap="">I wouldn't sell those at all.. what i do is ship to be paid on
receive... i send the CDs trough mail and pay for it.. when the other
person receives it, he/she has to pay to the postal services and I get
refunded... absolutely NO money gets to me for doing that.. i just get
refunded for the shipping that i payed in advance..

chilenos) for delivery to others Ubuntu. Constantly others questioning
me in form agressive that is no manner to offer Ubuntu.
The cost of the advertisement is 1 dollar and minimun the mail for a
CD is 3 dollars.
This cost is pay for the "client" because the mail and advertaisement
is not free.
I need to know if this for is correct or incorrect because there many
people take in his name Ubuntu and software libre.

<pre wrap="">Are the CD's you are selling, the same CD's Canonical provided to you?
If you are selling those CD's then you are doing something absolutely
WRONG (illegal maybe?).

<pre wrap="">I am quite shure that it is not illegal, and I personally do not think
that it is wrong. There is clearly little or no profit in this, and the
recipient gets it quicker than ShipIt, and Ubuntu is seen by the public
(the users of the auction-thingy, anyways).
I have done something similar. I too, had a feeling that I was doing
something 'wrong', so I clearly stated, that the excactly same CDs were
available from ShipIt at no charge, although with quite a long waiting
period.
Because of a miscalculation, I made 3 DKK (0.45 USD) of profit. I am
saving these for a future LocoTeam meeting. Hey - I could buy a cheap
beer and pass it around!
