How would you define a 'legitimate' shop?

The ones that wouldn�t do that, obviously. Can you really, in TYOOL 2018, not spot an obvious no-true-Scotsman argument? Does someone really need to do a basic google to find a story of an independent mechanic ripping someone off? The local news having a slow day so they hidden camera bust a local mechanic is like border-lining on a trope.

They just lowball desperate people and resell to developers
