A few years back I paid over $300 in Montreal to have several VCR and Super 8 tapes digitized. I'm not complaining, it was worth it to me and my family. I just wanted to say I think it's amazing that you are offering to help people out like this, and you are an awesome person!
This actually started with a friend complaining that digitizing old 8mm videotapes from when his kids were young was being quoted at $500-800. I told him that if he paid to buy an old player off eBay, that I'd do the work as long as I got the player at the end. The player was about $250, but got damaged in transit. I got refunded, and sent it off for repair... In the end, it only cost about $50, and he got two dozen videos of his kids growing up.
