Digitize Your Photos With ScanCafe

If you are like me, you probably have a few negatives, prints, or slides laying around waiting to be digitized. Memories are priceless, so why not convert those into a digital album yourself for a fraction of cost and time using ScanCafe.

ScanCafe is a leading provider of photo, negative, and slide scanning services for individuals and professional photographers. Frustrated by their own efforts to scan and archive their family photos, a group of Wharton Business School classmates started ScanCafe in 2006 with simplicity, low prices, and high quality in mind. ScanCafe can produce the highest quality 3000 dpi scans at roughly 1/4 the cost of industry averages.

Not quite sure what you want to send ScanCafe? Send it all! With the ScanCafe solution, members are not required to sit for hours, looking at all their slides, or worse, negatives. What did I do? Throw all of it in a box, slap a shipping label on it and sent it off. They will scan everything you send them. ScanCafe came up with a unique idea of "only pay for the scans you want" model. Members are able to view their scanned photos online and discard up to 50% of the photos they do not want. I really like this idea, and found myself discarding a few myself, with no hassle, and no extra costs.

Worried about them loosing some of your most precious memories? No need to worry. ScanCafe is able to guarantee first class shipping via UPS. They have successfully processed over 800,000 with damage or loss to a single photo and based on that, able to slap a 100% guarantee. The turn around time for all orders are about 4-6 weeks, but as a happy customer, I can tell you it is worth the wait.

    While scancafe was good they are no longer the best or the cheapest. See the side by side comparison here
