I will have to dispute the crabby review that this ""Mom & Pop"" shop got... Anyone that has ever been to Brewer's knows they will be greated at the door by Benny the Beagle, if he wakes up... They will be offered a piece of home smoked salmon that Claudia or Larry caught in Alaska fishing. These hard working folks work long days when most sensible people would have already retired and they offer their services at a more than reasonable price. And if they turned down work that they cannot do that someone else has monkey'ed around with, so be it. People and businesses have the right to refuse service. You have the right to go somewhere else. But for the 5,000 satisfied Brewer's customer's, and yes, they have thousands of satisfied customers, Claudia and Larry go the extra mile. They stay late, come in early, work on Saturdays and Sundays. Ask yourself if you would want your parents to work this hard and perhaps you would rethink your question. If it costs $200.00 in labor to fix a $50.00 item, is it worth it? Even if the customer wants you to do it? Then the customer goes and tells everyone how you ripped them off by charging them $200.00... Or what if you tell them it cost $200.00 in labor, then the customer decides after you did the work they don't want to pick it up? hmmmm... Keep up the Great Work Claudia and Larry! and you make the best smoked salmon in town!
