Flat Bed Scanners

[Metasomatized Ijolite]

What happened to flat bed photo scanners? I was in Best Buy and they did not have a single flat bed scanner. All they had were the combo printer, copier, and scanner machines. I just need a scanner for pics.

Multi-functions reached the low end scanner price point, obsoleting them. You can buy higher end ones online. I bought an Epson 1650 USB for $30 because I saw this trend coming years ago.

Go to Ebay, I just bought an Epson 1640 for 99 cents (plus 18.00 shipping). It works perfectly.

The reason not to buy a multi-function is that the cheapest I can find is $160 with low quality scanning ability. I just found a halfway decent flatbed on Amazon for $93. I also had a gift certificate so I got it for $75.
