Among the movies that LegacyBox has digitized for me and my children and grandchildren was a home movie from the 1930s that was bright and clear. It showed my great-grandmother, born at the beginning of the Civil War, smiling, walking and waving. What a treasure! What a legacy!

I believe my tapes were saved just in time. They were deteriorating.The longer you wait, the worse they get.

Great purchase. Great value.
May 4, 2021

My experience was wonderful. Couldn't have been easier. The entire process took less than 3 weeks. 3 VHS tapes converted to 3 DVDs. Amazing to see old 8mm family memories. Brought tears to my eyes to see parents and other family who have been gone for so long.
Highly recommend. Great value.

Amazing
April 1, 2021

We sent in reel to reel tapes 50 years old not expecting much and if anything scratchy and staticky. We got just the opposite back. I think the results were clearer than what was actually recorded. We couldn't be more pleased with the result and the turn around was very fast. They claim 4 to 8 weeks but we got it back within 2 weeks. My 89 year old mother-in-law heard her late husband singing and playing the guitar the first time since his death. Her eyes shined! I recommend this company to anyone with memories to restore from tape.

Reliving memories!
April 1, 2021

This was the best Christmas present that we have ever given to our parents. Watching them relive memories was the best gift! The process of sending the tapes in and having Legacybox work their magic was so simple and worth every dime.

Great gift
April 1, 2021

I found the only copy of a VHS of my sister's wedding. Digitalizing it with Legacybox revived the day and brought back memories.
It was a great gift to my sister and now to her grown up kids.

So happy I chose Legacy Box to put my 8mm tapes and VHS tapes onto CDs. They did a fantastic job! The whole process was easy. They kept you updated on the progress of your order. My orders came back fast! I had a great experience with Legacy Box and I am enjoying all my memories I haven't seen in 30 years! I absolutely recommend them!

Excellent Value
March 28, 2021

Most services charge by the foot to convert 16mm film. Legacybox does it by the reel. It ends up actually very cheap to have them convert the film.

PATHETIC AND UNCARING
March 29, 2021

Legacy did a great job. They made the process very easy. I gave them VHS tapes that were at least thirty years old and they did a great job. I would recommend them to anyone. Thanks again
