Wow. This is an amazing find. Did you read the description? It mentions carcassonnecentral.

Google translate gave me this: "The mini accessories package , courtesy of CarcassonneCentral compiled more fans ."

One of those is La Porxada and none of them are legal to sell as a pre-printed sheet, however cool it looks. Which country is selling that anyway? Hungary? Either way, it's backmarket goods and definitely not legal in the EU or US.

If anyone wants to make up their own La Porxada tile then look no further than the S-CAR there is a very nice (320 X 320 pixel) scan in the document.  If you look carefully you will see that the Porxada is based on a CCCC tile from the base game.  BTW the Porxada is described as an edification this should be edifice.

The most problem here is that the trader is selling fan-made expansions from CarcassonneCentral.

The trader says in his discription that the CarcassonneCentral community allowed him to sell the fan-made expansions.

Those tiles are certainly not "courtesy of CarcassonneCentral". All original tile artwork is copyright Hans-im-Glueck Spielverlag and derivatives may not be sold without express permission.
