I gave him another call at 7:56pm, since I hadn't heard from him and was wondering when I could expect him. He said he wouldn't be there for another 10 minutes or so. By the time he got there, it was 8:15pm and he charged me $175 to pick my lock, which took about 45 seconds. I wish I spent more time shopping around for other quotes, since a nearby business only quoted me $80. It was helpful overall but I would only use it again in a true emergency.

If only the Little Trees "leather" scent could capture this, they'd be in every car. Breathe deeply. Mmmm. When I dropped my shoes for shine and heels, the gentleman asked for an hour. I was thinking, really? Machine polish and brush like everywhere else should be like 5 minutes, plus heels? So I asked for 45. When I returned, I got to see Mr. James working on my shoes. BY HAND. Over and over he worked. It was a bit over an hour all told and $40 for two pairs' polish and one set of heels. This is old school level skill and attention. You'll see some of their work on shelves waiting to be picked up. I am honored to have brought my Sebago babies here for their best care ever. You can trust your very best pairs with them!!!
