That, and receiving a one-of-a-kind item, is what you pay for; more often than not, dearly. Character is a wonderful thing, of course, but in the case of custom items I would regard near perfection, astonishing details and equally astonishing craftsmanship to signify 'the hand that made it', rather than the mistakes. Although small, insignificant and quite inevitable mistakes do add character, and as I said I'd never expect anything to be perfect; it would be too boring.
Faulty geometry like in Aldwyn's razor, however, is like receiving a bespoke suit with one of the sleeves two inches too short.
