My sister has a Fujitsu ScanSnap, an Automatic Document Feed (ADF) scanner. I gave it a test run with some cards of no value/importance. It did fine on most, but the glossy cards had damage. Four fine scratches/impressions along the length of the card. Very hard to capture with my camera but quite obvious in-hand. You can see in the picture the two on the right side of the card, there are another two on the left side of the card.

I've been keeping an eye on the Fujitsu iX500 ScanSnap. It's the one I saw in a video of Burbank Sportscards scanning their cards. At $500 I can't see myself getting one anytime soon. Check YouTube for people scanning their trading cards.

Someday my cards may double in value and then be worth half of what I paid for them.

Thx Chuck. I think for adding mass scans using dupes is a great advantage. Maybe glossies aren't a good idea. A plus where needed. ------------------------------- *Bob*
