If there is profiting, it likely at as much due to the bidders as the sellers. I remember someone got irate against a seller when a Pat Tillman card was sold for tons of money. Someone else pointed out that the seller started it at $1 and it was the bidders who made it so so high.

I'm not for striking while the iron is hot with deaths (I wouln't offer Pucket items for sale if I had any), but if someone is selling stuff that others are willing to pay for and the proceeds go to the seller's medical fees, that doesn't greatly offend my senses.

One might argue that selling a Spice Girls CD to anyone who hasn't already heard the music is unfairly taking advantage of the unfortunate-- and all the Spice Girls are still alive.
