  a trade binder for over 20 years, is certified in London as a bookbinder
  and treats it as an art.  The difference is vast to my mind.

Indeed, it is.  What I was trying to express (and perhaps I failed) is that
the quality of THEIR art will have a tremendous impact on yours.  More than
you might imagine.
