Our Pricing
Tape footage to Digital Conversion
All tapes, one simple rate
$30 per tape
Important Information
- Every tape we process is charged at $30, including blank, TV-only or unrecoverable tapes, because each one has to be played through to check what is on it. If you know a tape is blank or only has TV recordings, label it or leave it at home.
- Long-play tapes (LP/SLP/EP) with more than 3 hours recorded are quoted separately before we start
- Damaged or mouldy tapes that need cleaning or repair are quoted separately, and we always ask you first
- To comply with copyright laws, we cannot digitise movies or TV shows
Payment is due on collection. Full details are in our Terms of Trade.
