This will turn out to be a nice piano, but don't expect to make any money. I=
t=20
will take a lot of time to rebuild the piano, but because of the name, you=20
won't be able to get what for it what it is worth. (It will be worth around=20
$15,000 -- $20,000, but you'll only get around $8,000 -- $10,000, if that=20
much.)=20

For an offer, see what they want for it, and offer half, but no more than=20
$1000. It would be better if you could get someone (private party), to buy=20
it, and offer to rebuild it. You'll have money in your hand.=20
