If I buy a 'Rolex' for $10 from a guy with a floppy coat, I'm not getting ripped off (I'm being stupid).
But I buy a Rolex for $595 because it is represented as a real Rolex, then I'm getting ripped off and so is Rolex.

There's a market for all kinds of stuff (from child pornography to swampland in Florida) but allowing it to continue unquestioned makes us all the poorer and our world a sadder place to live in.  

Since this puppet maker offers to build to order, I'm guessing that the very nice pictures are lifted from actual Muppet photos and the puppet is built after the check clears.  As a puppet enthusiast and collector wouldn't YOU like an authentic, can't tell the difference from a real one, Rolex?
