I don't think zines are elitist, but that's probably because I think the idea of elite fans exists only in the minds of the afflicted. ;-)
I will submit quite happily to zines if I trust the quality of the end product.
I don't buy zines because I can get stories for free -- even if I do have to write them myself -- and, again, there's no guarantee of quality. I guess I'd only buy a zine if it was of outstanding quality featuring great writers and artists, but then it would probably cost a fortune.
