Sorry, I realize that's what you were saying and appreciate your =
directness with your customers.  I just wanted to emphasize this point =
because I have encountered some jobs over the years that were sold =
without consideration as to the value of the instrument.  People were =
unaware that their $12,000.  restoration job only netted them a piano =
worth only $4500.

    I agree with you but I do think it is important to be as thorough as =
possible in advising the customer if the cost of rebuilding exceeds the =
completed value of the piano, or if the general quality of the =
instrument doesn't justify the cost.  If the client has other =
motivations, such as sentimental value, then they may go ahead anyway.  =
I have done several such jobs.   But in order for the client to make an =
intelligent decision, they should know all of the relevant information.=20
