Anders is not the most tactful communicator, especially when he's tired, and he's very tired.
Anders has had the opportunity in the past to work along side Vince. Is Vince's technical ability on par with Anders' ability, no, but I think Vince understands where his limits are and is good at not taking on more than he can chew. There are far worse local choices, and I think everyone knows that.
I believe Anders is fairly frustrated right now, that he can not take on any repair work due to the demands of his current day job and the situation with the shop. He'd like very much to handle repairs for everyone, and make sure they are done correctly and to his high standards. He simply can't.
Anders should have found a more tactful way to say what he said, or not say it at all.

Hi Bunni,
I do not know you nor have I met you and I've heard nothing but good things about you so please don't take this as a swipe at you.
"Is Vince's technical ability on par with Anders' ability, no"
I take it you've examined Vince's work in comparison to Anders? can you please provide an example to clarify.
I'm also curious as to how you "Think Vince understands where his limits are and is good at not taking on more than he can chew"
I take it you know Vince personally? he's communicated to you personally what his limits are?
FYI, to everyone else on this forum and I'm sure some of you know this already but there are people on this forum who lurk and never post who read these threads & posts. Maybe they know people like Vince maybe they don't but if your gonna slander someone online you should be aware that what is said might get back to the person you're saying it about.

I've read from some experiences with Vince, that he has refused some work or simply said he can't fix something. I have read this on other forums as well. This is why I say he won't take on more than he can chew.
I Have spoken with Vince personally yes. I've read his emails to Anders, and seen the type of questions he has asked, and I have taken his calls. I have seen some of Vince's work, because some of it was here in my house, as Anders was asked to help with it. None of this was recent, but it's from that perspective that I'm speaking from.
None of this is meant to slam or slander Vince. He is very nice. He is good at what he does. He does not have the same level of hands on experience Anders does. That's just a fact, not a put down, and I imagine he would agree with that statement. One does not seek help from someone less knowledgeable.
I'm a great computer tech. I don't know everything, no one does. I usually know how to find an answer though, and this is a good thing. Vince has done the same, this is a good thing.
There are some out there, who will take your money, knowing they can't do what they are paid for. We have experience with that. Vince doesn't seem to be that kinda guy.
I hope this clarifies what I've said.

Anders what does aligning the MPX circuit of a Marantz have to do with the OP's question?
If you have issues with Vince why don't you call him or better yet talk to him face to face to tell him "he's not really a good technician" or "has no Idea how to align the MPX circuit of a Marantz receiver even after I showed him" I guarantee you wouldn't say that to his face slamming him online is cowardly.

If he owes you money, please PM him with those details and he'll see you're taken care of.
If you would when he wakes up ask him to PM me and we'll figure it out.

I did, with words, and when I read back to him what he said, he was shocked that he'd said it. He'll be responding later on.
