I have never heard of submission fees.

There is plenty wrong with the "scientific publication" process as it is firmly rooted in the 19th-century mentality, but submission fees are not among the problems.

Ooh, wait until you have to struggle to pony up $5K for color figures in a major journal! Note: $5K is a lot for a researcher.

Not having heard of them doesn't mean they don't exist.
