I've encountered similar here. In this case it was the only repair shop for a good distance, in a small town with no other real competition locally. Bunch of deadbeat owners. Wrecked a Strat's wiring harness, fitted a dead switch to it, routed out the wiring cavity with a screwdriver and rock to make it fit, apparently sent a Zoom 606 back to Zoom to get fixed and it appeared a month later still broken, leveled the frets on an SG copy of mine using a bench stone, but never re-crowning the now-flat frets afterwards... bunch of chancing jakies. If you want to know who they are, especially if you live in the Scottish central belt, give me a PM.
