Well spoken, Charlie!  There are few business owners who take as much pride
in their products, or have accumulated as much knowledge, skill, and
experience as those who provide queens and package bees on large scale.  I
am in awe at how good a job they do, and how much they care about helping
less experienced beekeepers.

On the other hand, in my experience, I agree with Tony.  I've seen
sideliners supply truly crappy nucs to unfortunate beginners.  Just this
week alone, I've helped several beginners recover from lousy purchases.
