The other 30% sell throughout the year but each purchase must go through an individual vetting process, the center of which must be a hand-written letter from a child describing how the potential purchaser has positively impacted their life. All letters must include age of the author and a phone number as a percentage must be randomly audited for authenticity.
Or you could just try to teach the newbies on the playa some of the culture, but that would entail actually talking to them instead of just dismissing them because they Burn differently. Much easier to make really impossible hurdles to keep out the riff-raff and unworthies...
