Guys and gals... gotta thank you all for the great advice and info you all provided on this. I called the lady tonite and she will get back to me as soon as she has confered with the transport company. Shes gonna ask about how well packed in it was... But I think we are looking at like extreme cold for several hour in the back of a trailer truck, and rather poorly packed in. Maybe a blanket to protect against the straps... or something like that. I dont think the lakk is going to be fixed...Actually the piano still looks as a whole quite nice... at least for now. She is most interested in getting the insurance (justifiably so me thinks) to cover the lost value of her piano. The piano seems to have suffered no real critical structual damage. There is no-one in Bergen at present (in the piano buisness) that can or will do the repair. And I dont think she's gonna bother to hunt down a reliable furniture man. Tis not like the states where you often find the kind of person who will tell you.... "if I cant do it myself... I know who can". ..... -- Richard Brekne RPT, N.P.T.F.
