Got My CGC Scaner... whatcha think of quality?

[UnboxingTreasures]

There were quite a few threads on "which scanner" to buy for CGC books, and I finally decided on the HP Scanjet 8300. I got an AWESOME deal at newegg for $300.

 

Here is a scan example:

I knew there was a reason I liked collecting that title. Wanna sell? By the way, yes, the scans are great!

Does a nice job!!! Does it also scan 11x17 pages!!!

Nope, just considered a "legal size" scanner.

You are getting the 'halo effect' at the top of the book.

 

And the bottom too.

If I had multiples I would, but I'm working on a complete set. I know it will be hard (especially with issue #1). So far I have issue's 4, 6 and 9 at 9.6 w/WHITE pages.

 

A few years ago I had more, but had to sell them because of some difficult times.

You know how to prevent that?

[MutantKeys]

I know someone with a 9.6 White #1, but I doubt he will sell

I would definitely be interested in the book if he wanted to sell.

Good luck finishing that. The covers are excellent.
