That's a very diplomatic way of putting it. I'd also add that if you're looking for something specific and you're planning to buy it from Seattle Orchids, then make sure you purchase it in bloom or bud so that you know fairly quickly whether it is properly labeled or not. I've gotten several (expensive for me) Paphs and Phrags from them that after a couple of years of growing would finally bloom, and then I'd find out they weren't what I had purchased. And after that amount of time, Seattle's not going to work with you on a resolution.
