Amen! Steve. Al Guecia ----- Original Message ----- From: Stephen Grattan To: Pianotech List Sent: Thursday, April 10, 2008 4:27 PM Subject: Re: Clunker pianos - what do you do? Michelle, I also have a simple rule-of-thumb. I give the customer- in writing, a full assessment of the piano, its current value and its potential value - then let the customer decide. I have had many cases where I have given the customer dozens of reasons to junk it and they will say "It was Grandmas - I want to do it" The money is green, they have made an informed decision, I have full-filled my obligations and I like to pay my bills- so I do it. Have a great day!

Michelle, I have a simple rule-of-thumb. If the cost of my work far exceeds the potential value of the piano I refuse to take the job.
