I don't know where thise persistent myth that expensive-looking books (glossy color pages, etc.) sells games comes from. It seems akin to the myth that a system is "supported" when a stream of supplements is published for it.
I have a ton of RPGs on my shelf. The indie ones, on average, have better typography and classic design than the fancy ones do. I'll hold up, say, Apocalypse World as a well designed printed publication against 90% of the more mainstream publishing houses.
