The first businessman I encountered in Shelton, WA was Bob Rosie of Perfect Reflections Auto Body. He greeted me cheerfully and quickly set about taking pictures of my mangled door and dangling power mirror assembly. I told him about my budget requirements and he told me he could get me used parts that would save me quite a bit. I liked the fact that he didn't try to shame me into spending more money on an aesthetically perfect result. He was a guy that understood sometimes people just can't afford perfection and was helpful in sourcing the used parts to save me some money.

The parts came in ahead of schedule, the work was done, while I waited in their comfortable waiting room, and  I was out of there there same morning with a repair that exceeded my expectations and a bill that was exactly what we discussed. This was a good omen for my time ahead here in Shelton.
