Why someone would pay $30.00 for a reprint when you could create your own is beyond me. But I do think some of them are people fully realizing they are reprints and selling at flea markets or to others at higher prices trying to pass them off as real.
This is unfortunate, but if people refuse to know what they are buying, then that is their issue.
