1. I did it as CMYK at originally 400dpi I believe, but I went with 300dpi in the end. Normally I do color in 400+ dpi when it's a print job that really matters like this, but I went with the specs i was given.
2. Ken told me I would be given a Pantone book and could color match the paper proofs to that. This never happened, but yeah, I did ask because i wanted to Pantone match.
3. I normally do not Rasterize text. I convert them to outlines, again, because I was asked to do that by Ken.
4. There was bleed, yes.
5. the artwork is fit to the template, and this is because I used clipping masks from the guides on the template. it may deviate from +/1mm but I am almost positive that it does not. This wouldn't explain any of the problems, however.
6. The abundance of white room is because when you go from Illustrator to EPS, it makes room for stuff of the artboard. Give it a shot... put something outside the artboard, save as EPS, and then open in Photoshop (it won't create this problem if you use AI to open it, you have to cross platforms - This was confirmed when I was told that the printer use PS and not AI).
7. I thought they were trying to "fix" my art, too, but there was shifts between 100K 0Y 0M 0B and some different black that was leftover from an RGB switch. They should have fixed that if anything, and they didn't. There were minor things left and right they could have fixed but didn't, and since the colors ended up printing close to my files, I think that whatever they did was in vain.
