But that's the reason they would be sold at high prices, in the first place... You know how otaku are.

Seeing the title of this story, I thought it was referring to the creator of the manga 'FAKE'.

>guys who exploit fans are just smart.

Fixed that for you. Maybe if fans were a little less overzealous about how they spend their money when it comes to their respective hobbies, then it'd be far harder to con them like this.

I'd totally buy signed artwork by Ishikei.

Not for the "low start price of ¥20,000" but it'd definitely be something worth having.

I can't find a better picture, but there was this really small one that he posted of an "authentic One Piece" artwork, which looks like crap, but is getting bid like hot cakes.

I'd do the same if I were a fan of the mangaka. I can't blame the fags that bought the autograph.

Had a feeling you used this image before. There are other sets of articles that used the same image, but the Lucky Star "house bomb" is what easily comes to mind.
