.... and it was just a whiff of that magic stuff called WD40 that did an £800 job in 5 seconds flat that saved the straight strung overdamper you know what from the scrapheap and the piano purchaser from humiliation .... now 10 years ago ..... It does what it says on the can; anything you can do I can do better.

That's fine. That's a good reason. Just please don't make any moral judgments on the rest of us who are still keeping pianos going for folks, making them happy and putting bread on my table. I do condemn pianos. I did one just last week. The elderly lady bought a little wurly spinet, 40's era or so, paid $100 for it, paid $200 to have it moved, then paid me $60 to tell her it wasn't worth saving- loose pins, loose/split bridges, yellow cracked curling keys, nasty rodent infestation. But a simple split bass bridge is easily repaired with some glue in less than an hour. If you don't want the work, God bless you. I do. And my customers are very happy as they trust I'm going to keep their pianos going in a way that will give them the most bang for their buck.
