There could be several reasons — it's easier to buy them than find them yourself, they might be worried about virus or getting caught downloading, or they might not know there is anything illegal about them.
The Stephen King ebook collection on Ebay says that they are all in the public domain. It doesn't say in which country that is the case, but it would be reasonable for anyone buying on Ebay to take the seller's word for it.
