Hmmmmmm I wonder who that purveyor could be?
Your point is taken David, the challenge is being out in the middle of the Pacific ( As nice as it is) makes farming such things out, impracticle for freight reasons.
Also, Hawaii is a small place and it would not take much for the "provider" to the "purveyor" to, as we say in the islands, "cockroach" the job.
I think the lesson here is multiple.
1. Learn Learn Learn
2.Price you work for what YOU are worth. If someone doesn't want to pay it, then don't do the work
3. Carry a line of glasses that you are willing to work with and offer those.
4. Spend copious amounts of time on Engraving Etc learning and making friends....
These are just to name a few.
