AFAIK you're right, Stallman only cares about free as in freedom, which means at a minimum the source code should come with the product so you can modify it and inspect it. If you can figure out a way to sell it like that, and not just sell tech support, I'm sure he'd be all for it.

The GPL explicitly states that you can sell the software, just not the business model to do so.
