Legally, we cannot copy protected material such as pre-recorded motion picture.
Here’s how it works: You send me an e-mail, I reply with the mailing address. It is advised that you ship with a tracking number. Specify if you want the tapes returned. Return postage included, sending is through USPS “Media Mail”.*
Since this material is dubbed in real time, turn around depends on how mutch material is handled, but we usually begin within 24 hours of receipt of tapes, if another customer is ahead of you, you’ll go into a queue.
Unlike transfer houses which serve millions of families, this is a boutique studio, with each tape handled by a professional broadcaster with over 40 years experience in the business.
*”Media Mail” is a less expensive way to ship media material through the post office.
