Why do the religions of the world sell God's word?
God is for all and is word is being sold on the internet as you would a car. I think its an abomination and these people need not think to enter the kingdom of heaven. It says in those same scriptures that they peddle that it would be easier for a camel to pass through an eye of a needle than a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven.
Do you agree with me?
I'm not choosing any as a best answer because God's word should be free, and anyone who sells it is not worthy to enter the Kingdom of Heaven!

Can we honestly say that those who publish the Bible are making loads of money off of it?
Even scribes were paid for their work, by the church. And where did the church get its money? From the parishioners.
So because of production costs, and the fact that the church no longer directly sponsors the printing of the scriptures, the companies that produce copies of the scriptures HAVE to charge for them.

No ... because your question is not specific enough and is too generalized.
