I found the customer service very poor. It seems they have developed a "script" when originals go missing and will do their very best to avoid acknowledging their error. It would almost be funny, except that I lost more than 100 originals and some were nearly 100 years old (my grandmother as a 4 year old in 1914) and irreplacable. Bottom line: do your scanning locally so if things go wrong, you have some hope of finding your lost originals. Scan Cafe lost my originals. I found the customer service very poor.

I dragged my feet on several of the steps, but everything on their end was pretty fast, and the quality was great. I'll post a follow-up in the next couple of weeks. Actually, it went really well.
