So I'm curious, if you give them a really detailed specification, will they actually follow it all? If they don't, do you have any recourse? Are these small shops/fronts that are constantly coming/going like Amazon sellers, or do they have reputations?

Depends on the shop. The one I use for prototyping has been around for at least 15 years with a good reputation.

Do you mind sharing your contact / shop? Email in profile if you don't want to share publicly.
