 bargain. 

The $6993 is what it would cost a customer to do what is listed. I have never 
charged that much to a customer to rebuild an upright piano, because I try to 
discourage that kind of thing. 

In your previous post you said "If someone wants to sell an upright 
 that has been completely rebuilt, for $7500, he is either not doing 
 everything necessary, or he is cheating himself."  Now you are saying for 
 that kind of money you expect the piano to be completely rebuilt.  Which is 
 it?
  
Which does he do, completely rebuild the piano for $7500, or sell if for 
$7500 claiming it has been rebuilt, when in actuality it hasn't? If he is not 
completely rebuilding it, then he should say so. If he is completely 
rebuilding, but only charging $7500, then he is cheating himself.
