I'm still chasing toners. :D The market remains strong and I tend to get outbid on most of my targets. I have also seen less high end toned...

They are generally good (I have been happy and have only read a few minor complaints from others over the years). They also have some of the best...
My guess is there is other evidence of cleaning or the surfaces just are "off" in a way that is more evident in hand vs in a photo. If those lines...
It is just a conversion of the 70 point scale to a 10 point scale where every grade maps to a new grade. And it is lame that they don't allow it...
