To type in caps on the internet is considered yelling. But what about for a company name? Look at many logos or signs on the sides of buildings. It is not uncommon for a company to capitalize every letter in their name. It works well for shorter names, maybe becomes a little much for longer names. Well thankfully on the internet, no one can HEAR you scream. Much.

Recommendation
I ordered from Helgetown a while ago, before I was doing these here reviews. I had put them on my favorites list and here I am again making an order. That should say something. Their grading process for parts is outstanding. Probably over the top but you know EXACTLY what to expect. Worn, chewed or dirty? You know it's coming. And the price is commensurate as well. This order was a little less stellar than I remember the last one being. But even so it was still better than many orders I've received. This is definitely a shop to put on your favorites list unless you like, hate unicorns or something.
