Timulty Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 No problem, it is usually just a matter of adjusting your imaging software setting. I have found my pics fit best at 850 Width and 150 dpi at 85-95% quality. Hope that helps - Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 I use a tip I was given years ago, which is to set width at 770. The average user sets their resolution at 800 width, so 770 will allow the entire picture to fit within their screen without scrolling. (I know, higher resolution is better, I set my own at 1280.)

tth2 Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 Thank you Er, so now can you delete your scan so it doesn`t keep pushing the right edge of the thread way out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timulty Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 This Detective #3 is up to 3K already, from a very low feedback seller, and no pics. Plus his / her feedback is strictly as a buyer not a seller and as recent as 2004! In regards to ebay item #6633233457 Detective Comics in CGC 4.5. Looks like the scans are up for it. Not the best looking scans but you can see the CGC ID #. Looks a little dirty but not the worse copy of thise book, I have ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bat-Hound Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 I won this on the last Heritage signature auction and paid a lot $$$$. The book looks great but seems to have a large spine split running down to the top staple. Also a small piece out on the top of the back cover. Still a nice 3.0 [/img] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durden08 Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 Sweet Tec 35 I guess the spine split caused the 3.0 grade, but it sure looks like a 5.0 from your scan. I wonder why this issue comes up so infrequently for sale? I tend to see issues 32,33,34, 36, & 37 much more often than #35. Maybe they're out there, it's just that collectors aren't selling. Congrats on a great purchase! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Detective-migration Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Amazing book, Bat-Hound! At the prices pre-Robin Detectives are bring at auction I may have to settle for a coverless copy with a photoshopped cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CW Posted June 2, 2006 Author Share Posted June 2, 2006 I've noticed a lot of the mid grade pre Robin Tec's seem to have some form of spine split. I think all 3 of the Tec #31 5.0's have at least a 1 incher. Is this because of the thickness of the books? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedarkknight Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Don't feel bad. I have 34, & 37 and the highest grade is a FAIR. I also have a 30 (GD+ tape down spine) on layaway, but that's going to take a little while to get that one out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HouseofComics.Com Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 You could have practically picked it up. Well, I guess it would've been a bit of a drive. He lives near where I grew up and one of my first ebay purchases from the seller--Star Spangled War Stories w/Unknown Soldier that I needed. I thought his grading was poor at the time.

1koko Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 Could'nt resist buying the Detective #31 Vault Auctions listing. Vault Auctions Only spotted it 3 hours before auction ended and though I never normally buy plods it is a #31 in MP 8.0. Ended up highest bidder but hadn't met reserve. I do like Vault Auctions in that it prevents last minute sniping. At end of auction all those who have previously bid on an item can bid for a further 4 minutes. This 4 minute period continues to rollover till there hasn't been a bid for 4 minutes at which point the auction ends. If you win the auction but don't meet the reserve the highest bidder os offered it first at the reserve price before it ges on open offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
