Standard Videotape to DVD conversions are flat-rate priced at
$15.95 per original videotape,
regardless of length of video footage or format of tape. We only support tape
formats listed; we do not support Beta, U-Matic, Betamax, Betacam,
V2000, DVCAM, etc. During processing, if we determine that your videotapes are recorded in PAL (generally recorded outside the US, Canada, or Japan) format, we will convert them to NTSC (USA viewable) format for an additional $3.00 per videotape. |

| Signature Option | |||||||||
| When we mail your project back, do you want us to request a signature delivery? If no signature is obtained, the shipper will leave your package unattended. If you elect to obtain a signature, the driver will not leave your package unless it is signed for. It's extra security and peace of mind, if you need it. | |||||||||
| |
|||||||||
| Dual Shipment Option | |||||||||
| Every single videotape and photo that we have received has made it home safely. However, we do offer a dual return shipment option. We will return your new DVDs back to you in their own package. We hold all of your original material here, until you let us know that you have safely received your new DVDs. At that time, we would ship your originals back to you in the second, separate shipment. This dual-shipping technique is an extra security feature for those who desire it, as it ensures recoverability should one of the packages become lost or damaged during their return trip home. Keep in mind, we only use FedEx and every single item that we've shipped out has made it home safely. | |||||||||

| If you elect the optional labeling option, we will not charge you for tapes without labels. You only pay for what we can deliver. Regardless of your DVD face option, we will affix a numbering scheme to each of your originals. Your DVDs will have the same numbering scheme on the external enclosure...allowing you to tie your new DVD back to the corresponding original tape. These numbering sequences are easily removed and leave no residue. | |||||||||

| How Many "Additional" DVD Copies Do You Need? | |||||||||
On the work order form that we will provide, you may write special instructions for us to indicate how many copies of which specific DVD you want. We strongly suggest that you order a second copy of each master, if your goal is to preserve/archive your videos. A DVD can last 100 years, but it can also be scratched or broken at day one. Having a "second entire set" would allow you to keep the backup set out of day-to-day reach. For example, if you're mailing 10 original tapes and want 2 EXTRA copies of each one,
you'd answer 20 copies. |
