FAQs
How long do you take to copy my tapes?
Assuming the tapes are in good condition, we usually complete copying & return your tapes & digitised files within 7 working days. We will tell you when we receive your tapes and when we post them back. We use a tracked shipping service.
Do you copy more than 5 tapes for a customeR?
Yes. Contact us for a quote.
What if my VHS tape is damaged?
Most VHS tapes can be fixed, depending on the severity of the damage. Any splits can usually be spliced back together easily, without a lot of video loss. An easy way to avoid the hassle of repairing a broken tape and ensure it is done correctly is to send it to a specialist digitisation company like us. We make an additional charge of £10 per tape for splicing repairs.
Do you offer a bulk discount?
Yes. We include discounts for customers with more than 2 tapes to copy. It can cost as little as £14.97 per tape when 5 tapes are copied at once.
How do you take care of my tapes?
We understand that your tapes are precious to you and we do our best to keep them safe. When they arrive we inspect them for obvious damage. Then, we ticket them with your name and contact details and store them safely until we are ready to copy them. After they are copied, we burn the digitised media to your chosen medium (i.e. USB stick or DVD) and return the tapes and the digitised media to you by tracked postage.
Can you convert tapes for me if i am outside the uk?
At present, we only offer this service to people located within mainland UK.
What image quality can I expect?
Your digital files will be to the same definition as your video tape. The video cannot be enhanced from the original. Most VHS tapes are 480p whereas most of us are used to high definition TV nowadays at 720p or HD1080p.
What if my tapes are damaged during copying?
It's unlikely but, when handling old tapes, it is possible that tapes may snap or split. In such cases we will attempt to re-splice the tape and continue. If the tape seems in too poor a condition to copy, we will return it to you and refund you the copying costs. Unfortunately, whilst we always try to take great care of your treasured items, we cannot be held liable for the loss of tapes sent to us for copying.
