That way a customer would be taking less of a chance on getting back a mount that sucks.
Yes, apparently it IS a great big coincidence. My username comes from the brand of X-bow that I shoot! And yes, I totally understand where Oldtimr is coming from. That is why you MUST check out the work before you take your animal to them. This not only applies to taxidermy, but it applies to almost every profession out there. There is always someone who knows how to do the work at a cut rate price, but is not a professional.You probably know some yourself, maybe a mechanic that does work out of his garage. Why worry about someone who calls themselves " whatever"? If their customers are happy, it's none of our concern!
