Mahesh,
Anyone selling an ASA license on eBay would be very suspect in my opinion.
ASA licenses must be installed, as you know via activation keys. Those keys are exclusive to a specific (by serial number) hardware unit. The activation-key must be generated by Cisco (or via the self-service cisco.com licensing portal).
If anyone sells you a key that hasn't been generated via that method, there's no telling what the outcome of applying it would be.
