jbud73 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 (edited) Finally got around to getting a new printer/scanner, sadly Its the new technology so I have another older CCD scanner on the way for slabs Adding to the Oakland discussion, here are the 71 and 76 purchased off Metro just after the Vinny / Stephen 'merger' The Vincent Collectibles sticker calls them NM and I'm partial to agreeing with that. It also lists the original price (not what I paid) but what they were originally listed at. Barton, I have to say that probably was the best subway ride you ever took.

jbud73 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Here's one of the last slabs my old scanner did before it retired. I like the Cover to DD 2 a looooooooooooooooot more than the cover to DD 1. Rob I think we both missed the boat on paying a reasonable price for a DD1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

romanheart Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Nice copies guys. That's a better 76 than mine. What's reasonable for a DD 1 anymore? I don't see how I can upgrade my copy either. Not easily anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not easily anyway. The word reasonable and DD1 are mutually exclusive right now. Its just going to cost a bit more than it should. I really do NOT like that cover but its probably time to get it over with and pony up the $$$. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Pontoon Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Two and a half years ago rob_react scored a nice 9.4 #81 and mentioned centering problems common to that issue. I finally pulled mine out. I'd say its centered decently and presents well. Unfortunately it has a dime-sized stain on the back cover. However, it's nice enough otherwise for me.

jbud73 Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 Finally have a CCD scanner again. Took $80 on Ebay and some nail biting waiting to see if it would get here in once piece. These are recent, if recent is defined in the last 2 years since my old CCD scanner went poof, new All in One has CIS technology and is horrible for slabs.

Mark 1 Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 I just picked up a DD 18 9.2 from Greg Reece on his new OO collection he picked up. North Ga books. It's a really tightly graded book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
