   [...] please read the GPL 2 b).

Yes, lets.

"You must cause any work that you distribute or publish", since the
work hasn't been distributed to you yet, so I am quite free to charge
you a bazillion zorkmoids to actually distribute it to you, Section 1:
"You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a
fee.".

I could go on about this specific paragraph, but this suffices to
prove that the GPL does not set the price to zero, or anything else
for a work which is licensed under the GNU GPL.

   Oh, Ah, BTW, just in case***, I'll give you ninety-five percent of
   profits if you drop me a link to negatively priced GPL'd stuff.

I have no clue what you are talking about.
