Well, I am getting email asking about the movies on DVD.
Let me explain this to everyone.
When we get an order for a DVD, we transfer using only SuperVHS,
SuperBETA, and LaserDisc Retail Titles, using PINNACLE Systems DV/AV
Capture and transfer the Video to DV. The DV is then converted to
MPEG-2, a process which takes 3-4 hours, then burned onto a master
DVD.
Since the majority of orders we get are for VHS, a few for Beta, the
time involved in making DVDs of each and every title is time
consuming.
Once a DVD is mastered, copies can be made in 15 minutes or less,
using the 4X DVD Recorders we have.
In the FAQ, each Video Traci Appeared in has an asterisk, *, to
indicate it is available on the Retail Web Site. We have Retail
Masters of practically every original video she was in, as well as
several of the compilations.
The online store is offline right now, until I get it rebuilt and back
up on the Server, but using the FAQ as a guideline, you can see which
videos we have available.
Retail Boxed Tapes are $40.00 each, add $5.00 shipping and handling
for the first tape and $3.00 each additional tape, we ship Priority
Mail with Delivery Confirmation.
Copies are made off the Retail Tapes, and come in a plain white
sleeve, and are $25.00 each, same shipping costs.
DVDs are made as they are ordered, one Master DVD, each DVD is $25.00
and comes in a Keep Case with the original Retail VHS/BETA cover in
the DVD Slipcover, $4.00 shipping for the first DVD and $1.00 each
additional.
We send all orders via Priority Mail with Delivery Confirmation.
Foreign orders, check with Customs before ordering.
Canadian Customers, due to Canadian Customs policies, we can no longer
ship orders to Canada. Canada allows underage videos to be
manufactured and shipped out of Canada to the USA, which violates US
Customs, but will not allow videos to be shipped into Canada which
contain the same type material, only of an older person in the video.
