Yes, this week matter of fact. I priced around & ended up at Walgreen's. Cost varies depending on how many rolls. Like $49.95 initially, then .10 per so many feet, plus cost of DVDs. It gets expensive. My Mom had 23 rolls & it will be around $100, plus then I plan to make more copies. Each roll is about 15-20 minutes from what I was told. Hope that helps.

Takes about 2 weeks turnaround (maybe 10 days if all goes right).

I purchased one of these machines and I was very disappointed by the quality of the conversion. Hopefully they have improved as I got one of the earlier ones several years ago.
