I fought the SCAN...

And the SCAN won :'(

Not sure how we used to buy from scans as it now seems so archaic almost like when dinosaurs still roamed the earth.

Anyhow I took a chance and reviewing it like a photograph it looked promising until it arrived.

It's not horrific, just not what I was expecting as it's no vision of sugar plums dancing.

I'm not posting a photo as I'll take my lumps since it's my first return of the year.

    Yes. All here are scanner agnostic.

    Hope you didn't buy it from me.

    I don’t fear the scan. Makes BU look like dull lead so not a lot of competition on those. Most buyers want to see those luster bands I guess.

    Nope as ethically once I post it it's mine, as it's not something I want or to pass onto anyone else.

    Now if you all want to see it really bad pm me for my PayPal payment address.

    Once made whole I'll turn this into a teaching thread followed by a give away ;)

    Got me wondering about "ethnically" and the coin ;)
    I would understand "ethically" though ;)

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

    I actually kind of miss browsing eBay and interpreting scans. I got pretty good at it.
    Then..........no more scans.
    Bummer. :/

    I can tell the difference between a sketch and photograph :D ...not sure I can differentiate between a photo and a scan.... well... I guess if it is a high quality photo showing luster I could... ;) Can luster be added through photoshop?? Probably.... Cheers, RickO

    You can't win them all and this one has already been mailed back.

    Sorry I didn't feel like wasting digital film on this :)

    She's the best girl that I ever had. I always thought that song was written with Mrs. Hydrant and yours truly in mind. I'm pretty sure I'm right.
