I tried to get people on the phone at BestBuy, no luck. I have a couple of tapes that I want to get converted, but I don't want to invest in the hardware. Do any electronics store perform this service?

You use this guy before or did you just Google it? I'm interested in transferring some old VHS tapes as well.

We just finished converting over 300 VHS tapes to DVD, and now in the process of ripping the DVD's to .mkv format. Found this to be the easiest way..using a VHS/DVD recorder from back around the mid 90s. The better hit ones from that era will have an HDMI output and 'up convert' analog tape output to something a little better. Cost about $300 for the machine and we burned ~300 DVDs. Overall....the quality is significantly better than the original tape....still low resolution and a little jittery...but the memories have been preserved, and now the boxes and boxes and more boxes of tapes can be destroyed and the resulting video files consume only ~3TB.
