Clunker pianos - what do you do?

[Pianoman]

Hi Michelle,
The thing to keep in mind is that once upon a time these clunkers were new. 
You are seeing them in the twilight of their years.  Part of the problem is 
the lack of piano stores once you get passed the big cities.  There are 
numerous new brands available for the tuner who may want to begin handling 
his or her own new pianos.  Dealers start from some point.  Maybe this is 
telling you something.
