Er... I'm no lawyer, but if it's illegal to make copies, wouldn't it be just as illegal to make and sell 1 as to make and sell 100?
I don't think Frank is out to make tons of money, he probably wants to share the "original" TOEE with the world, which I can understand.

I'd guess in the range of $2K - $3K, probably closer to the upper end given its wild popularity. But that's just my guess.

I believe there are, though in low numbers.
