<DIV>Looks interesting...but I'd agree with Don. Have them buy you a ticket, take a working vacation and see the piano. </DIV>

<DIV>That's awfully cheap for a complete restoration. I'll bet it was done by that place in Poland...forgot the name. I've seen one of those 4 string unison Weber concert grands that was overhauled by them. Not a bad job, but not anywhere near the quality of work you'll get from the better rebuilders in the US.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Worth a look, especially if you get a free plane ticket or two! </DIV>

<DIV>Man contacted me from the Azores, wants my opinion about buying it. At the Euro/Dollar exchange, they want just under 22 K for this piano.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If I could fit a 9-footer in my living room and had the money, I think I'd buy it. Whatayallthink???</DIV>
