Why doesn't the MGS sell Starcraft?

Because it's a ten-year old game? A lot of stores don't carry it, anymore, but there are still a few that do, like GoGamer.

Yeah, short of hunting around the web for Carbon-mods for it, I don't think you can even run it on Intel Macs due to a lack of classic support. It's a more or less defunct title on the mac.

You're wrong on it not running on Intel Macs. It runs just fine. Blizzard released a native OS X installer some years ago, and, the way it sounds like, the next patch might be a universal binary.

Far from being a "defunct title", it's more actively supported on the Mac than most games that were released last year.... Nobody runs in under Classic anyway, even on PPC.

Learn something new all the time. I didn't know Blizzard had released an offical OSX launcher for the app.
