Fake Avers!

This first time I see these but obviously these have been done long time...

As an author myself I'am very sad to see that kind of action.

Of course no copyrights in Russian...

Avers 6

Black/white, soft cover book. Includes information than the original one but pictures are not very clear.

And the price is much lower than original one...

Not every collector in Russian can afford $80 price that original Avers sell for...

Many go for low-cost substitute.

Kameli,

These are very common, and typically sell for 1/3 of the original price.
