The title "No Witchcraft for Sale" is ironic because, while there is witchcraft involved in Teddy's healing, it's not a tangible thing that can be bought or sold. While it's vital, it's not for sale because it's more knowledge than physical items. So, the title seems to imply that because the witchcraft if not for sale, it's not offered or available, but that's not the case.
