I dont think ebay care less whether sellers stick to the rules or not, 
but I do believe it is not permitted to sell items for which there is no 
physical item shipped. Hence I dont think electronics downloads are 
permitted.  It's a long time since I looked at eBay rules, as clearly 
they are not enforced.

One can I believe contact a member. If each person who buys a copy and 
was told "Do you realise you have paid for wireshark, but you can 
download it for free", the seller might get a few negative feedbacks.
