    I was a member at joomlart.com which expired very recently. i have downloaded over 20 templates from there during this period. i've not seen anywhere on their site about trading or selling templates. ( i have not even used 2 of the 20+ i have)
    so would be legal to trade/sell it in a bid here ?

    From Joomla's Terms of Use:

    "I. COPYRIGHT INFORMATION

    So I guess your answer is no, you can't sell them or exchange them.

    I think my warped sense of humour bypassed you there - you're NOT ALLOWED to sell them on, whether you've used them or not. Joomla probably consider downloading the templates as usage anyway, so you have already used them.
