I have tried every angle I can and none come out even close to that. Although my phone camera does pretty well. Wish I could get my scan like that though

I've long given up on scanners and learned to actually prefer pics. Play around with lighting. This is artificial light just now, but I find a card standing up in natural sunlight usually gets the best pics

I agree with the natural light but the prized seem to do well in a darker room with the flash on..

If you're using a phone, I recommend using a black background in indirect natural light, using an app called CamScanner. You're able to take the picture at a slight angle, increasing the light play, then square up the image setting the corners in the free software.
Here's an example:

The time has come for the final 2 Biggio Crusades to leave the nest. I've raised them right, instilled values, showed them the ways of the world. Now, they need to find a new adventure and home with new friends.
<--- Check them out, because they'll be gone in T-Minus 10 hours!

This looks like a great deal for a Royals/Conine collector:

There's a Conine Century up for $40 on its own.

No Troy Glaus collectors on here? I think @DeliciousBacon is but there is a Starting 9 on COMC and just shocked it isn't swooped up yet by a collector of his... then again $150 is not peanuts and might be too heavy a fair.
Not mine by the way but here is the link: http://www.comc.com/Cards/Baseball/1999/Fleer_Tradition_Starting_Nine/581S/Troy_Glaus/2247761

Yeah, I've seen that one, but $150 is far far more than I can ever justify. I know that's an iconic set and all, but I own at least a dozen Glaus 1/1s that I paid less than $150 for combined.
