Would you want someone else profiting from your work?

It's copyright infringement, period.

Anyone with a Neato mailing label template, Photoshop, and a right-clickable mouse could print these.

VERY.
You could probably d/l a lable printing program off of the internet for free - or even just check out the $5.99 rack @ the computer store. Buy the blank lable sheets (in the paper isle) and you're good to go. You could use any picture of anything you want.

every week we see someone selling unauthorized PJ stuff. PJ isn't even very popular. I wonder how much unauthorized stuff is sold on e-bay everyday for Britney spears or other artists whose fans aren't so anal.

I wouldn't say PJ fans are anal, just protective.

Most just want to see the artist paid and credited for the work they do and not allow someone to profiting from their talent and time.

$1.25 for a Buy It Now! There are people amking hundreds of dollars with fake autographs, why should this guy get any attention? Let him sell his stuff for $1.25 for christ sake. He's not trying to make money on it (the time he spends on packing the thing and mailing it is more than $1.25 I tell ya...)
