Avoiding stolen scans....protect your photos from right-click-copying.

I agree. I preferentially look for ungraded cards on ebay (although I'll buy graded too). Saving the scan is a must unless I know the seller by reputation or this board. Other than that, a scan is the only record I have of what I bought (I also print out a copy of the auction page even though the picture comes out black and white, so all info is retrievable, and keep it until I get the card and all is well.)

If I can't download the scan I pass. I'm not sure it makes me outright suspicious, but I just don't have time trying to mess around with it and the printout is not clear. I might try the Save-to-Disk trick next time just because that does sound quite easy, though.
