Wow. $4 per 20 pages? That's highway robbery.

I myself buy older comics, mainly from the 50s to early 90s (seriously, the last event I am up to date on is Inferno.) I pay much more than the cheap, less than a dollar cover price of said issues (some of the 60s sci-fi/horror issues I enjoy can hit $8 an issue), but I honestly feel it balances out, because the majority of those issues, even into the 90s, are 48 pages of content.
