This isn't about tuning now and paying later, it is about a guy who wanted to pay me later for a rebuilding job. After I finished rebuilding this guy's Steinway, I asked him to come to my shop, inspect it, pay the balance, (about $3500), and make arrangments to have the piano moved. He told. "Move it to my house, and after I play it for 3 months, I will decide whether to pay you or not". Obviously I didn't agree with that. After 2 months, and several calls between our lawyers, I finally got a check by special delevery. I haven't seen, or heard from the guy since. He didn't even ask me to give him his 4 free tunings I promised. Wim Blees St. Louis
