However, when I appraise an instrument, I give three prices: Replacement cost of brand new; The price a "downtown" store might put on it; and a price she could expect to advertise if she were to sell it herself. She isn't planning on selling it (I don't think), but in Lincoln, NE, she would have to advertise a huge area probably from Chicago to Dallas, or farther.... Yes, "good" condition meant that it needs work albeit several thousand dollars worth, but if a new one costs $140,000, then several thousand isn't so big in perspective..... Best, Paul Paul The "as is" appraised value for this piano would be about 60 - 70% of a brand new piano, less the anticipated cost of replacing the part, etc, including case work.
