I'm pretty into this place's business philosophy: just ship us your stuff with a little bit of information and we'll repair it. don't call ahead, don't ask for a quote, don't send us garbage that's not worth repairing. mucking around and/or unnecessary communication will just slow things down. We'll fix it and ship it back and bill you. End Of Story. I wish my work-life were so simple.

> We don't carry spare parts or we just have a dislike for some of these brands, so please do not send the following ... Alina, Craftsman, Helios, Kanon, Peacock, NSK, Fowler, Starrett, Sylvac, SPI, Scherr-Tumico ... Anything made in China.

How the hell that even works is beyond me; usually in the case of phone or laptop repairs it means crazy high backlogs and other issues along the way. Bonus points for those repair people who never say no and in effect spend all their life in the workshop.
