Nice to get some positive reaffirmation every once in a while :D It's hard to talk about this type of thing without throwing an unfairly wide net, and I'm not trying to be critical or insulting towards any individuals. I'm also not saying that there aren't good, honest people out there in the coin business that actual provide services that people truly value. However, the nature of the business, unfortunately, puts it into the same negative categories as, for instance, used car salesmen. There are some good, honest used car salesmen out there to be sure.
