Per-image, tier, and box pricing
Per-image services scale directly with the number scanned. Tiered services lower the unit price after quantity thresholds. Bulk or box products can be economical only when your collection uses most of the included capacity.
Resolution and add-ons
A provider’s base price may cover only its standard resolution. Higher DPI, TIFF files, manual correction, album handling, oversized prints, USB delivery, and return shipping may be separate or quote-only.
Count before you compare
Separate loose prints from albums, slides, and negative frames. Estimate each category independently and note the largest print size. This prevents a low loose-photo price from being applied to media the provider prices differently.
