<div>><font face="Arial" color="#000000"> What can I do to help her
sell the piano as in the role of a piano broker?</font></div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Bauer pianos are good, well worth restoration for a customer who
wants</div>
<div>to revive a vintage piano.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>The piano itself will bring short money, so don't expect much if
any commission.</div>
<div>The money to be made is in the contract reconditioning. Unless it
is a diamond</div>
<div>in the rough, don't take it on for speculation.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>As others have stated, most old pianos are not worth repairing,
meaning they</div>
<div>will not command a price to cover the cost of
reconditioning/restoration. But</div>
<div>occasionally you find a beauty. One old piano I'd like to
get back was a Bjur</div>
<div>Bros. upright, they sure don't make 'em like that anymore.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>I'd much prefer to work on a Bauer than a S&S upright.</div>
