I would have no problem with the Abus, Calcutta, or Penns and such going to Buckos. I have only had one problem with a reel they did over the years (oddly enough, two identical Abu 6000s and one was great the other nossomuch).
Not sure which higher end Jap reels Dangles is meaning but if it was high end Shimano I'd go to Shimano and high end Daiwa not sure where I would go, whether Buckos or someone else.
River's End does reel repair and is authorized for VS (at least)
SWE has self repair stuff for VS.
