What else can I help you with?

Song lyrics are copyrighted. Unless one gets legal permission, license agreement, then it is copyright infringement. You cannot sell those tees until you get permission from the copyright owner.
Is copyright law broken if you do not sell the information you copied?
Yes; making a copy is one of the exclusive rights of the copyright holder, regardless of whether you sell the copy or not. Certain educational uses are exempt.

If I paint a picture that has already been painted by an artist but say it is 'After The Artist' with the artists name and title can I sell the painting without fear of copyright infringement?

Is there copyright infringement if you draw a name brand product like a bottle of Pepsi and then sell the drawling?
Possibly. If the logo is entirely incidental to the drawing you might be okay; if it is used as critique or commentary on Pepsi, it could be defensible under fair use. Most other uses would require a license.
How am I infringing on copyright laws if I'm selling an item on eBay?
If what you're offering to sell on eBay (or anywhere else) is an unlawfully made copy of copyrighted materials, then offering to sell it is an infringement of the copyright owner's exclusive right to sell copies to the public. The so-called "first sale doctrine" (e.g., in the USA, 17 USC 109) does not apply to illegal copies.
Can you make copies of old magazine advertisements for resale?
You can sell the old advertisement, but to make copies and sell the copies is very much copyright infringement. You could probably get aay with it for some time. But if you ever got caught the fines can be severe.
Where can I find a site where they have the tenth book of the 39 Clues and can download it for free?
You probably couldn't because the books sell for money, and freely distributing them would be an infringement of the copyright (in other words, theft).
Do stores sell replicas of the ray gun from black ops?
No they do not as it would be a copyright violation unless it was a licenced product
