It was 1972 manufacture. I completely looked over the piano, and it was as new! She had a humidifier running and told me she had done so since the piano was new. By the looks of the piano I could tell. I couldnt find a thing wrong with it. I wrote a letter stating that I did a full inspection and then I called a dealer and asked what the price of that piano. They told me 30,000.00 So I wrote that the replacement value of the piano was 30K.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> Turns out they sold the piano for 5,000 to a non-profit music group and wrote 25,000.00 off their tax. Now they want me to sign this IRS form. My confidence is shaken, because I am suppose to sign this thing, and it states that "I do appraisals on a regular basis"...however, I do tuning and repair on a regular basis. Am I over-worring here? I mean, I think the purpose of the form is to confirm that I just dont work at Turkey Hill or K-mart or something and that I <STRONG><EM>do</EM></STRONG> know the value of such things, which I <STRONG><EM>do </EM></STRONG>know. Is there any responsibilty I have over looked. I am tuning, repairing, refurbishing and evaluating for 4 years now. This is a first. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Thanks in advance,</DIV> <DIV>Julia</DIV> <DIV>Reading, PA</DIV><BR><BR><BR><DIV><FONT style="color: black; font: normal 10pt ARIAL, SAN-SERIF;"><HR style="MARGIN-TOP: 10px">See what's free at <A title="http://www.aol.com?ncid=AOLAOF00020000000503" href="http://www.aol.com?ncid=AOLAOF00020000000503" target="_blank">AOL.com</A>. </FONT></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV><BR></DIV></BODY></HTML>
