Thanks Paul Paul You said the piano is in good condition, yet it needs to be restrung and needs a new stack. That is not exactly chicken feed. Or is that why you consider the piano in "good" condition, instead of "excellent" condition? There are some questions that need to be answered before an appraised value can be put on the piano. Why does the professor want it appraised? Is she looking to sell it, or for insurance purposes? If she's looking to sell it, how long is she willing to wait, and how far afield does she want to advertise, and for how long? If it for insurance, does she have "replacement value" insurance, or "as is" insurance? A shameless plug. For more information on appraising, please attend my Estimate and Appraising class at the convention.
