It's just business. No need to judge anyone based on that.
People offer a service. People want to pay for it. They agree to an amount of money that will suit both of them. There is nothing wrong about this.
Regarding autographs : it is absolutely normal that people will charge money for an autograph when participating to an event where the point is to meet the stars and get a souvenir from them. They are offering a service and should be remunerated for it. Sometimes, you can even buy merchandise, then get it signed.
I personally couldn't care less for autographs. I have gotten two in my entire life... for free... one for the thrill of getting an Olympic champion... and the thrill was really short lived. the other time was for Nik's blue eyes... I just wanted to look at him from up close... and I felt a bit sorry that everyone was asking Lolo and not him I corrected that. and he is really good looking from up close
