Looking for a scanner on ebay...

[dpeezy415]

I'd love to start a bucket and display my collection as it continues to grow, so the first step is to get a scanner.

I know that I don't need an expensive one, but I know NOTHING about scanners so any help would be appreciated.

Are these any good?

If I could find a cheaper one that would be great too, seems like these are MORE than adequate...

Thanks for your help, you guys are great!!!

Yes, those are all excellent scanners, but if the only reason you want a scanner is to scan cards you can purchase a decent scanner that will meet all of your requirements for $60-$70 at just about any store that sells electronic equipment, and not have to worry about the $20 for s/h. It the end it would save you between $40-$50 on a scanner, and you would still get what you need.

Thanks for the tip. I will check out Fry's electronics tomorrow morning, and keep ebay as a last resort...

Appreciate your help guys!!!

Yeah, the most basic of scanners can scan your cards for view on the web. Most of the high-ende scanners are for printing pictures and other hi resoltion stuff. I second MichiganMan's idea, get it locally and save your money.

That's the one I bought. and I love it. Great price and free shipping. Works with a Mac and a PC, if that's an issue.

Funny! I read the title as "Looking for a ScaMMer on Ebay!" :icon_redf

Gotta get these eyes checked!

bought a scanner today. A Canon that cost me $50 bucks. Hope that its OK. If not then I got 90 days to return it.

So how would I start a photobucket? Any suggestions or links?
