      $1,500 of less than 10GB of data. Ouch.

        Included is $99.00 for the drive they would put the data on,.. but still - I don't know how that really compares. It appears though that they may opt out of the recovery. Will have to see.

          $99? For a $4 USB stick?

              That's foolish. Costs more, has no advantage and doesn't ship as well. That's $95 of "ripping you off".

                  They are stuck in the past.

                        @Dashrender I mean are we really suggesting that they are stuck in the 90s rather than ripping him off?

                          Sadly - Yes. It's probably a combination. But they haven't looked at updating their process. They are an HD recovery factory. They want to deal with HDs.

                          Also, it's probably pretty rare for someone to only have 8 GB of data they want/need recovered. While as long as it's less than 128 GB, they could still go with a memory stick pretty easily, I'm sure they don't want to maintain multiple stocked devices.
