If you place your order directly with Selke GmbH, your order will be processed smoothly, efficiently and in a timely fashion (20 to 30 days?), but Selke will not do research for you. You must know the exact reels you want, and I think you would be able to get these from Theo Boiten. On the other hand, if you place your order directly with BA-MA Freiburg, they will research and determine which reels you need and then get back to you. Once you have the reel numbers, you can follow their ordering instructions. The whole process with BA-MA could take 3 to 4 months. Both Selke and BA-MA can handle your inquiries in English but they will write back to you auf deutsch (in German).
The most difficult part is reading (deciphering) the place names in the log entries. Sometimes these are given as coordinate references from Luftwaffe grid sheets.
