    I just pulled up the 25 most recent things and made note of the licenses. Here's what I got

    Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike (CC BY-SA) - 22
    Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial (CC BY-NC) - 1
    Public Domain (CC0) - 1
    Creative Commons Attribution (CC BY) - 1

    Admittedly a rather cursory sample, but it looks like BY-SA is decidedly the most common license and it allows for commercial use, as long as you keep their name on it (see here for how to do that properly) AND make the the model available to anyone buying the prints you're selling, giving them the same rights to the model as you received.

    Only one of the 25 models prohibited commercial use.
