Why buy Yixing pot if all Yixing clays are depleted?

by itsgoingtorainsoon » Aug 25th, '11, 23:14

I was thinking of buying an $100 Yixing pot lately, but ive read that some decades ago all Yixing clays have been depleted. So what does that say about all the current Yixing pots? Are they not real?
