What is wrong with the phrase "We value your custom"?

Do you think the average spammer has better diction than the people who write form letters for Amazon (and thus, instances of advanced English are a red flag for spam)?
Or do you simply feel that "patronage" is somehow more formal and therefore should've been used instead?
