What C3PX and auximenies have written about Chapter Five is entirely reasonable. The original fifth chapter of The Hobbit will never be as much of an issue as the original Star Wars trilogy.
Nonetheless, I believe a significant number of people would like a copy of the original version of The Hobbit, if only as a collector's item. Although the quality of the print might not be an issue, for some people having the original as it was originally composed involves having it as an integrated work - a book being arguably more than a collection of text in one binding.
