Hello list,

This piano according to the customer was manufactured in the '20's or '30's. 
She has requested an appraisal and estimate.

She's buying it from a friend and out of fairness wants to pay "exactly" what 
it's worth.

Leaving the repair expense out of the valuation picture, does anyone know if 
this piano because of it's limited numbers or unique style have any more (or 
less) value that any other generic grand of this age. Wurlitzer made it.

Also, in short, what would any of you say to the customer about this piano. 
I'm not good about spinning yarns. Maybe if some of you are, you could put 
your spin on spinning a yarn. I'm finding more and more the customer wants a 
story like a drug addict needs a fix. Jack Wyatt can do equally well in the 
realm of reality and fantasy IMHO, maybe I should just call him directly.

Thanks for your attention.

Joel Swafford
