Wondering if any one else has this issue. I have many early 2000's Allen & Ginter, Topps 206 and other Mini cards. The size is about 1.5 x 3 inches.
I use a Fujitsu 8170 front load scanner. When I scan them they either get stuck or the image comes out stretched or chopped. I do have a flatbed, but the thought of scanning each front and back and then having to rename them for bulk listing gives me a headache. Any thoughts would be appreciated, Jim |

I have never done a bulk listing to start with but you might just have to figure out a way to do it more efficiently, or maybe, sell in groups. I don't know that market so it might not make sense. A lot of us use the Epson V600 flatbed but, as you said, it is 1 bed of the scanner at a time. And I don't know how big these are but maybe you can put about 10-12 on the bed at one time, to save time...

Thanks for the reply but I was hoping to avoid the flat bed option. I can fit many on the scanner, which is fine. The problem is after I scan the back, I would now have to rename them in order to bulk list on ebay or Card Dealer Pro.

When I collected Topps cards, I reached a total of 43,062 different "cards" (1948 thru 1992, regular and inserts) all of which I scanned on a flatbed scanner in the 8 or 9 page sheets, which I kept in Itoya profolios.
Front and back, so 86,124 "different" cards, in around 10,000 scans. While you mention never using a flatbed, conversely I never considered feeding them into a front loader like you are trying, that gives me the creeps. I found free software online that helped to cut the individual scans into the 8 or 9 individual card scans. I renamed each file to match with the card. It took forever. But it was fun to "play" with my cards like when I was a little kid, and since it was virtual I could do it while killing time in an airport, or late at night in a hotel when I couldn't sleep, or while watching a movie with the lovely wife. I was going to say there are no real social media generation shortcuts to scanning that many items, but I suppose both keeping them in the sheets, and especially the free software (which I don't think I still have, sorry) would qualify.

I solved it below.
Or, since it's a lot of effort to mow your own lawn, maybe hire the kid up the street. Last edited by doug.goodman; Yesterday at 04:33 PM. |
