I won a copy disc of this program on eBay. Is that authorized distribution? 
(Not incidentally, if integrity is important to you and your program,
they charged me $8 to ship this little CD copy for which they actually paid 67 
cents to ship.)

Yes, it is legal to sell OpenOffice.org software on CDs, for whatever price a seller is willing to sell it for and a buyer is willing to pay for it.

From what I can tell, $8 including shipping is fairly typical. For people with slow-speed connections, which would take 6-8 hour to download and they might have to try several times to get a "good" download, paying $8 might be a bargain.
