TIPSfolk,

I recently had an article accepted for publication by a journal.  In the
acceptance letter, they describe charging $18 per page and having to
purchase 100 reprints in order to guarantee publication within a year. 
For the article, it would be about $250ish.

Without paying, the journal describes a backlog of 5 years.

I had no idea they charged when I submitted the article.  There isn't an
incredible urgency to list another publication on my CV, but then again, a
publication is a publication.

I'm curious to get feedback from anyone else who has been in a similar
circumstance.  Pay or don't pay? The money would come out of my pocket. 
Is it just the price of our business?  I knew that Psych Reports charges
but didn't know of others.  Opinions?
