Tractor Manuals on Ebay

Posted by kevin on January 09, 2003 at 12:07:32 from (12.94.103.93):

For those of you looking at or buying manuals on Ebay, just wanted to provide a little info based on prior experience. Before bidding on the manual, ask the seller how the manual is bound or stapled and also ask if it's a machine reprint or a photo copy made on a $75 copy machine--(possibly a violation of copyright laws).

I have bought several and discovered that at least one (still looking at 'em) was a photocopy and stapled like an 8th grader's book report. The cover image is also crooked and of poor quality. The images in the manual are pretty bad too and it's obvious that this one was a "copy machine special". The ones that are stapled through the pages at the center crease seem to be "original reprints". These are also printed on 11" x 17" paper as compared to the "bootleg"?? copies, printed on standard 8 1/2" x 11" copy paper.

Maybe I'm the only one that didn't know this, as I'm kinda new to the old tractor world, but just wanted to let you good folks know so as not to get burned.
