[CAUT] Y & C action brackets

[Scott E. Thile]

I did one last year. Young Chang paid $200, plus provided the action
brackets... In this case the piano was long out of warranty, so I felt it
was pretty generous of them, and it needed other work; hammers filed,
regulation above what replacing the brackets required. I billed the client
for the portion beyond the $200. They were happy, and I was fairly
compensated.

List,

I am getting ready to replace the growing action brackets in a Wurlitzer
grand.  I have been reading all the posts regarding this problem.  Will
someone please tell me what the current compensation is from Young Chang?  I
think the price they quoted me is insulting.

I printed the 2 page attachment that was on an earlier post, that was
written by Phil Glenn.  The compensation at that time was $250.00-300.00.  

John Chang, (no relation!) the person who I dealt with said $200.00 is their
max.  If anyone on the list has done one of these jobs lately, would you
please verify what it is you were paid?  

Thanks
