Going with the assumption that each book is ~1kg, it'd be more like $250, but yeah... :/
Here's what cracked spines look like... (the white lines)

It's not that big of a deal IMO, it tends to look worse on smaller books...XD I can understand wanting to keep it in perfect condition though. *nod* If you crack it too far, the glue can start coming loose, which I found out when I tried scanning the ads for T2 and the pages fell out... -_-; Having them loose makes them about 1000x easier to scan and gives a much better picture though, so I figure I'll try removing the other color pages I'm planning to scan anyway... *shrug* (Since it's already ruined, a few more pages isn't going to hurt.)
