Spammers don't need to buy your email address; you gave it out on a
public mailing list.

Look up some info on address harvesting.

If you don't want spam, don't use email, or take measures to protect
yourself/filter your email. There are many, many mail filtering/spam
blocking resources at your disposal. Use them; but know that nothing
is going to prtect you absolutely save pulling the plug to the outside
world.
