It would probably be illegal if it became obvious that the person
"auctioning" that particular item was going to make a lot of money doing
that.  But at $1.30 ea. it doesn't look likely.

Of course, TLG could say that this isn't a fair interpretation of their
policies, and dig out the lawyers, but if they are doing this, then they
probably can't comment so there may not be much said anyway.

Please tell me this isn't legal.

It probably isn't illegal. It's just not very smart, especially for the
person(s) buying the item. Considering that most of the instruction are
available from www.brickshelf.com and, (I'm only speculating here and am • not
in possession of any information that directly confirms or denies this
speculation,) that it would be easy enough to mine Brickshelf for the • images
used in the item described. Just a thought.
