Brought back many memories, seeing all relatives who have passed, very emotional, well worth cost
Knowing that our treasured home videos are now preserved from VHS to DVD is everything. The process was flawless
I have a cassette tape which was made in 1992 that I didn't dare play for fear it would be destroyed. A friend suggested Legacy. What did I have to lose?
To my surprise and great delight, when I played the digital download, I had my cousin singing as beautifully as when she did the tape in 1992 (she has since lost her singing voice and this means even more)!
Legacy digitally cleaned up the imperfections; it was as if this had been mixed in a studio! The original was returned. I can't say enough how impressed I am with the quality of the download!
Thank you Legacy for giving me my cousin's voice back!
Sent in my family home videos to Legacy Box in November, giving them 25 years of home videos and they lost them. They have not been helpful or transparent in the search. They say they are still looking for them, but I would not recommend their services to anyone.
We had alot of VHS tapes. And smaller comcorder tapes. The quality wasn't the best. What came back to us was unwatchable.
The 2 DVDs were really good considering the age of the tapes. I think legacy did the best they could. They let me know that they would not meet their standard and
They let me know as they were doing them. I really appreciated that information.
This was my second batch and I'm just as thrilled as the first time with the delivery
Legacy performed as advertised. Everything was tracked, good Communications while they had my materials, and they delivered on time with a good product.
I cannot thank Matt enough for his exceptional customer service. He was prompt and very helpful. I own a graphics company and this is how I want my employees to be. They do fantastic work!
So happy they could save ore old 8 mm film to pass on to next generation,
Priceless:)
Thank You
Very easy. Very fast. Love the results. When there was a pause in the old video Legacy let me know that there was more coming so I would continue watching.
I believe I sent 11 of my dad's 16mm film reels from the 1950s in for conversion to DVD.
Best thing I did. I was afraid because of their age not all would come out, but they did.
I see myself as a child, long gone beloved relatives and family friends, and many vacation and holiday memories.
Thank you so much for this.
A bit unsure from the beginning...
All we had were some 8mm home movies from the 1950's, that were continuing to deteriorate in a tote in the garage, along with some family photo's. That's all that was available to show our children and grandchildren about half of their more recent
Family ancestry. Too bad, but we didn't want to lose that too. That's where LEGACYBOX came to our rescue!
The results... beyond any expectation imaginable! We were hoping to simply preserve any thing that could possibly be saved... what we got is truly impressive. The 8mm home movies view better then their originals. So viewable, we simply cannot believe it. The photo's will now be enjoyed by many far... far into the future.
Now is the time for us to start securing family memories for our current and future generations all thanks to LEGACYBOX! And without any of those "unsure" feelings.
We had a box full of old 8mm family home movies. Legacybox made it easy & affordable to have them transferred to CD. Everything was tracked & we were kept in the loop every step of the way. We are very happy with the results.
Recently my mom passed away. About a week after her passing I received the link to download the digitized home movies I had sent to Legacy Box. I was able to share them with my Dad and siblings as we reminisced about Mom and our family when we were kids. My youngest sister had no memories of her childhood before age 6 and she grew up with a strained relationship with our mom. While we watched the movies we laughed, cried and shared our feelings. That day my sister was able to heal and have an assurance that she was loved and did have a beautiful childhood. Thank you Legacy Box. I have more that I will be sending soon!
Easy to use and a treasure to receive. Received everything promised and no problems
It was a very smooth experience and love being able to watch home videos I've not seen in a long time.
The box was full of information making it very easy to get my items together and sent properly. It was WAY quicker than I expected based upon the anticipated return time of a couple of weeks. I had my memories returned to me in less than a week and the usb drive worked flawlessley in not only my laptop but on my TV. Great service!
Answer: All Video and Film Transfers are done so at 480P. Additionally, we convert almost all consumer formats of videotapes, photos, film reels, and audio. Here's a full list of formats we can digitize: *Videotapes: VHS, VHS-C, S-VHS, S-VHS-C, Betamax, Hi8, Digital8, Video8, MiniDV, HD MiniDV, and MicroMV A note on foreign tapes: We can convert most PAL and SECAM consumer format tapes. The only foreign format we cannot currently convert are PAL and SECAM Betamax tapes. Just put a note in your box if you have a PAL tape. *Film: 8mm, Super8,16mm, and Super16 A note on sound: Since sound on film is so rare, and to ensure we're providing the highest quality transfers, it is not our standard process to digitize film with sound. *Photos: 35mm Slides, Photo Prints (up to 8.5 x 11"), and 35mm Negatives A note on photo packaging: When sending in your photos, slides, or negatives, we ask that you remove them from any extraneous container, group them in bundles of 25 and place them in clear plastic ziplock bags or envelopes. *Audio: Standard Audio Cassette Tapes, Mini Cassettes, Micro Cassettes, and 1/4" Reel-to-Reel Audio If you have any more questions, let me know. I am happy to help!
Answer: Legacybox sends everything back to you along with any thumb drives, CD's you ordered.
Answer: No. Just went through this with them. It's a "tough luck" and they keep your money.
Answer: Nope. They took 3 months to tell me an item was "damaged" and then told me their refund policy was 20% or more of the media damaged to give any refund.
Answer: Hi Judy, Great question! We ask that slides be grouped into sets of 25 (one item) either in an envelope or ziplock bag. We will provide small barcode stickers to apply to each bag of 25. Slides will be processed in numerical order, according to those barcodes. The order within each set of 25 is not guaranteed as there are alternate factors such as shipping where they could move around.
