Bill,
  I agree that it's very rewarding to go in and resolve this kind of 
situation.I've had numerous occasions where the customer was told the piano 
was junk,usually by the same guy (which works for a local dealer,with maybe a 
sales commision in mind), and most of the time the piano has minor problems.I 
can think of one instance lately, where I went in ,reglued some flanges,eased 
a few key bushing,and pulled up 100 cents to A440,and the lady was almost in 
tears with thanks.It does'nt get any better, I love my job!
Best,
Hazen Bannister
