I was a customer of Jim's back when he had his retail shop. I was young and had very little money and he always treated me like was a real high end customer. He sold me my first Linn, not only did he set it up for me, but he taught me much of what I know about turntable setup. Every dealer,importer, and manufacturer should read this and take it to heart. Every customer should expect this from a brick and mortar dealer.
