Our ties might not relate to yours. Why not just get the net time on
one piano and use that figure. Doing your won time study would seem
to be the best way to be fair to yourself. I know you want to be able
to tell the dealer something in advance, but it wouldn't be hard to
convince him that until you've worked on a sample piano of his, you
shouldn't be asked to say how long it will take.
IMHO.
