Anyone just used DAG/Sherry CLA recently?

[Srono]

I have few items needed to be serviced so I am considering to send them oversea. I didn't have nice experience with Youxin so I am considering either DAG or Sherry. My concern now is turn-around time. So I am curious if anyone just sent things to them for service?

Please share your experience. Thank you!!

I'm thinking to send 1 jammed M6 and few lenses.

I've heard DAG takes some time as he is usually backlogged. I know people who have sent it to Sherry, but instead I went with Focal Point for the lenses (John Van Stelten). Sent him a Summitar that has been sitting in the cabinet for 40+ years and with stiff grease that locks up the mechanisms, and lens elements that are dusty and slightly foggy. Got that all fixed in a week or so, about 3 weeks including transit time (a week each way). I used John because he is supposed to be able to recoat lenses if required.

CUrious to know what you experiences are with Youxin.
