Home Trading Cards & Memorabilia Forum

Well here's a first!

I recently bought a new scanner. It works great and it has a fantastic dust removal feature which can clean up a scan pretty effectively.

Well, sometimes it cleans up too much! Check out the "P" and the "A" in Pirates: Auction Link

The buyer bought the card thinking that it was some super awesome rare unlisted variation. Now, with the card in hand, needless to say he's disappointed and wants a refund. image

    I never use any filters when scanning cards, for this very reason. I've never seen it do that before though. Wow...

    and how appropriate that "Bob" is staring skyward and maybe thinking: "Oh no. Not this s#!t again."

    I refunded him his money the instant he emailed me, I just think that this is a silly incident.

    He got a great deal according to VCP average. Refund and resell....you should get more the 2nd time around.

    Actually it's not really that silly, 1966 Topps cards constantly
    have new printing variations being found/touted all the time.

    I too would have thought/hoped the card matched the scan!

    Especially where the banners are.

    Good for you.
