I'd love to see the originals
While I can fully understand that one can't see anything wrong with the original, and then suddenly see a great color difference between the top and bottom when directly comparing them by copy/pasting a part of one into the other, I just can't accept that the eyedropper shows such a large difference between the original and copied parts.
I shall see what I see, but the eyedropper can't lie.
An oft quoted image is this one (I also used it to illustrate this same point in the PW1 thread two years ago):
While the fields A and B look like they are miles apart, the one dark grey and the other light, the eyedropper will tell you that they are in fact the same color (#777777).
Therefore, after you said that you copy/pasted the part, I was expecting them to be exactly the same, despite what I was seeing, but obviously, they are actually different for whatever reason.
What you see is not what you get...
