lil_hell4t Posted September 18, 2001 Posted September 18, 2001 ok i was told to buy a scanner in new zealand dollars ($1 u.s. dollar=$2 n.z. dollars...and 1 pound =$3 n.z. dollars) it will cost me $300!!!!!!!!.....:eek: ..is this true,does anyone know,because im thinking of buying myself one and need to know how much to save up..thanx --laterz---:confused: :confused:
Navi Posted September 18, 2001 Posted September 18, 2001 yeah, i believe 2 new zealand dollars is equivalent to the us dollar round a bit maybe. my friend wanted to buy a scanner, and i told him i already got one, cost $250-$350 i think. he said their scanners cost double that. i couldn't stop laughing.
Transtic Nerve Posted September 18, 2001 Posted September 18, 2001 My scanner only cost like... $25.... but ofcourse that was because the store was out of the ones that were on sale and there was a like $40 rebate on this one.... so not only did I get like an expencsive scanner for way below it's original price, but I got money back too :)
lil_hell4t Posted September 18, 2001 Author Posted September 18, 2001 hmm,lucky transistic ,back in my day we payed full price for everything we baught times sure have changed j/k....hmmm..i better start saving i might be able to buy a scanner in say.....20 years j/k ..awell might as well start now thanx 4 tha help:eek:
Guest Master O Beans Posted September 18, 2001 Posted September 18, 2001 I recomend the "ALL IN ONE" or whatevre they're called... Phone, Fax, Scanner, Printer, Copier, etc etc etc. We have one, and I must say, it's very nice!
DiscoSnorlax Posted September 18, 2001 Posted September 18, 2001 Get a flatbed scanner. Trust me. Try scanning a pic out of a book or off of something hard with a sheetfed scanner.. can't. And I hear the handheld ones are just a nightmare.. Also, try to get a program like textbridge for your scanner. Comes in VERY handy sometimes. That's my advices.
Kottonknot Posted September 19, 2001 Posted September 19, 2001 I got mine fairly cheap...100 bucks. The local computer store was going out of business. Mustek III EP Plus.
No-Name Posted September 19, 2001 Posted September 19, 2001 mine was like 129.99. its good, but kinda slow.
lil_hell4t Posted September 19, 2001 Author Posted September 19, 2001 thanx guys for the tips and help,i did some reaserching and found that a computer store down town sells scanner programs,and those flatscreen scanner thingys,hmm and the scanner cost about...$200 or so,cant remeber,writen down somewhere,anywayz thanx :D
Matt.D Posted September 19, 2001 Posted September 19, 2001 [color=rainbow] We got our's free with the purchase of our PC, but now it's broken...stupid piece of trash...I tell you, when something is expensive, it's expensive for a reason: quality....not always, but i'm not getting into that....you know how it is....[/color]
RicoTranzrig Posted September 19, 2001 Posted September 19, 2001 My scanner ran about $250 U.S. It's a large flatbed which is probably the best one to use in terms of quality as opposed to the smaller ones.
Yoda Posted September 19, 2001 Posted September 19, 2001 I don't have a scanner, and it doesn't bother me one bit!
