The feed loader is easy enough to get around. They might even be doing the scanning in batches of 100 pages (which would partly explain how they count sets).

I reckon the 2.5" limit might be the maximum that their spine cutter thingy can accommodate.



Just signed up for the Platinum Membership and shipped 32 books (graphic novels) directly from Amazon. I've been wanting to buy the comics for a long time but there's just no more space in our tiny apartment to store all those books. They're usually like 190~210 pages each so I played it safe and only sent 32 (@3 sets ea = 96) but it looks like they were all less than 200 pages each so I can send quite a bit more. Will wait for the scans before I send in more books.
