Everything went well and pleased with the results. Mail was slow, but I was in no hurry. Plan to send other items to put on disc
Excellent communication with this company, Do not need to worry
They have always delivered my pictures/VHS tapes etc. in a timely manner and have done the best they can to make them as clear as possible. And if I had an issue they have been great at helping me.
I would say I'm like most who were skeptical sending their memories of family, friends, holidays etc away and hoping for a safe return. Well my experience with Legacybox was everything I hoped for. The process was very simple and straightforward. After shipping my tapes out, I was updated on the status, which made my nerves relax. I received the finished tapes a lot sooner then I expected. I absolutely will be using Legacybox again seeing that I have about 30 more tapes to transfer. Give it a shot. You'll be glad you did
I purchased a Legacybox for my mother's Christmas 2016 gift so that she could finally get all of those VHS-C tapes converted before they further deteriorated. Just a few months later, my father died and my mother misplaced the box. Fast forward to 2019, and I contacted Legacybox customer service about getting another box sent and explaining my situation. I received a prompt reply, and the customer service representative was very understanding and helpful. She sent a new box to me with updated postage for a very small fee. I finally sent away my mother's box to be converted in Christmas 2020, and the entire experience was great. I received regular updates about the status of my tapes, as well as some heads up about quality issues in advance. Although I was understandably hesitant to send my family's priceless tapes in the mail, Legacybox made me feel comfortable through the process. I truly felt cared for by Legacybox.
This is a very professional service. The instructions are impressive and the turn around time was fantastic. I will definitely be using Legacy Box again.
I'll be sending my THIRD legacy box tomorrow. This company knows how it is supposed to be done. They digitized by mother's 8mm films from 65 years ago. I will continue to use Legacybox and will always recommend them to family and friends.
Legacybox did a great job of transfering my family memories i would refer them to others to use for their memories
I like the service everything comes fast and easy and the customer service very helpful and friendly
Downloaded from a google drive, the digital files were there and easy to download.
Sounds is great for the ones that transfer well, as far as the qualitative of the video is excellent. Some of the video, the sound stutters, but the videotapes are 15 years old.
Would use LegacyBox again for sure. Super smooth experience with them. Great communication from them too. End product was AMAZING!
When my box came with DVDs converted from old tapes I was so thrilled and very emotional. It was beautiful to put in a DVD and relive those precious moments that I thought I wouldn't see again. Legacybox did a great job for a great price. I couldn't be happier. Thank you so much.
They lost my tape... memories gone forever. The digital files I did receive were of poor quality. I left an earlier review but Site jabber didn't post.
My experience with Legacybox will have a lasting legacy! They make ordering the box all the way to the finished product an effortless process. They are there to answer any questions and give updates on the transfer at such a great rate you feel almost like you are there watching them work. It is so simple to use and so rewarding when you get your finished product back. I still have more films to transfer with them because they do such a GREAT job! Highly recommend their services.
This is our second purchase of a Legacybox.
We have been more than satisfied with their service.
Our slides and videos were handled a copied with the best care and resolution possible.
I have many cassettes my dad recorded of band concerts. 8th grade-college. Comvertrd them with legacy box. I can now hear his voice again and lovely music. Thank you so much!
I kept putting this off and once I used Legacybox I don't know why I waited. I had a stack of hi8 tapes gathering dust. I sent them off and in no time I was sent the digital downloads. What a delight to relive all those wonderful memories.
This was the easiest thing I've ever done. The results were great and now I have dozens of VHS tapes transferred safely and forever to digital
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. The digital files are free from any copyrights so you can very easily re-order them however you'd like once you receive them back! Please reach out to our customer service team for the fastest responses at [email protected] if there is anything else we can help you with!
Answer: Hello, thank you for reaching out to us! Yes, the digital files you receive back are free from any copyrights so you are more than welcome to edit them as you see fit.
