I'm assuming that they only sell these posters though their site? In
that case, it is not a license violation if the site properly attributes
OSM.*

If their customer then publicly displays or re-distributes these posters
without informing the viewer/recipient about the source, the customer
would indeed be committing a license violation - but for that we cannot
technically blame the original vendor.
