     @jae Right now you can buy the whole Yotsuba series for less than $25 USD in Japan, new. If you want the same bundle here it costs seven times that. Unless the ink is made with gold and the translators are paid like actors, I don't see why it's that expensive.

     @hfaust They seem to not want to even pay translators anymore, they appear to be often using machine translation now.

     @hfaust Receiving previously paid for copies of drawings has nothing to do with theft and murder with the help of a boat.
     
     It should be obvious that faced with an abundance of high-quality paperwork prints very cheaply, you wouldn't consider downloading lower quality copies and trying to view them on a computer screen.
