Here is Bettie responding to your not liking bangs!

 

[supapimp]

Actually, she isn't. You won't find any rolls on Bettie! But that simply reinforces her own fine self that you would think she is sucking in her gut!

 

Oh - it is spelled pubescent! Ha! Pov corrects someone's speling! A fine and rare thing!

Actually, Supa was trying to spell "prepubescent."

The full version of my avatar says that too...

 

"Don't like females with bangs"...you're high, aren't you?

I HAD to leave you with something. For you see, young sprout, with age comes gentle understanding. And high-end shades, too!

[supapimp]

you're high, aren't you?

 

nope, im not high, but i still don't like females with "bangs", maybe after some scotch neat and irish whiskey shots.

[PovertyRow]

Here's another! And again, no tummy sucking!

Oh my yes!

I have to assume that's on the items in their inventory...I don't think they include their high grade early Marvels in their inventory. They certainly don't sell them upon request--many have tried to buy them for crazy money and failed!

Is it me or their scanner, because all the Eides books seem to lack any gloss or cover lustre? Can anyone who has purchased from them confirm this?

The case usually looks like [!@#%^&^] too so I assume it's the scanner

[blazingbob]

I would not assume it's the scanner. I bought a book from them that looked exactly like the scan. Don't expect any radical difference from what you see.

 

Or are you stating that they should do the Heritage "Lights, Camera, Action" method of scanning.

 

Dont' worry, I am a vulcan with a inner eyelid to protect me from the glare.

Definitely not! Heritage's scans used to all have a yellowish haze their first year or so. At some point I guess they realized that their inadvertent addition of that yellowish tint wasn't a good thing to add to a collectible which yellows naturally with aging, so since a year or so ago, they look EXTRA-white, just as you're describing.

 

I love the size of their scans, but I wish they'd work on presenting the colors more accurately. I'm mildly red/green colorblind and am not all that sensitive to color variation, but Heritage's scans are so far off that it jumps right out at me.

I bought a book that also looked a lot like the scan. The gloss was fine, but it was a bit more yellowed than I had hope (I have since sold the book).

I still see yellow in a lot of their scans. It's amazing how much the photoshop software can affect the image. If you use different contrast, you can almost see the interior cover printing or a lot more yellowing.

 

I like Heritage a lot, but sometimes I have not bid on books that looked like they have extensive yellowing and it's possilbe the book really had very litte. Very hard to tell.
