Hi, Michiel. Welcome to Pianotech. You write really well. I especially like the phrase "Chinese and Russian junk". It's obvious that you have a good eye when it comes to determining piano quality. I agree with your feelings about spinet pianos, too. As for keeping them on our side of the Atlantic, maybe we could enter into an agreement whereby we could ship them HALF WAY over and then unload them--you know, where the ocean is the deepest! :) That way, NONE of us would have to work on them.
