I did find one shop that said “bring it down and I will take a look at it”. Once I got there he said “Nope, can’t touch it. But go down to this other shop and ask for Chris. Tell him I sent you.”
Turns out Chris doesn’t give two craps about liability and was happy to try and plug it. It still has a slow leak though but he offered to try again if that happened. I will give him another crack at it and if nothing else it gets me by until the Bridgestone’s arrive.
Again, I learn that life is more often who you know rather than what you know.
Just to be clear, Chris took the tire off and put a mushroom T-patch in from the inside? Or did he try plugging from the outside only? I've not heard of an internal patch/plug failing.

He dismounted and did a plug from the inside. I haven’t checked it today to see if it lost any air though.
