<WBR>According to the Petrof dealer I used to work for back in Alabama, there is no Petrof importer right now. Geneva has exclusive rights to sell Petrof for 6 more years, but Petrof is trying to get out of the contract. To make matter more complicated, Geneva owns the name Petrof in the US. As a result, Petrof is not shipping pianos to Geneva, Geneva is not sending Petrof to their dealers, and the dealers are running out of Petrofs. No one is making any money, except the lawyers.<br> <br> <div style="CLEAR: both">Willem (Wim) Blees, RPT<br> Piano Tuner/Technician<br> Honolulu, HI<br> Author of <br> The Business of Piano Tuning<br> available from Potter Press<br> www.pianotuning.com</div> <br> <br> -----Original Message-----<br> From: dpshans@aol.com<br> To: pianotech@ptg.org<br> Sent: Tue, 11 Dec 2007 5:35 am<br> Subject: Current Petrof Importer?<br> <br> <div id=AOLMsgPart_2_eee77e4d-c270-4a4a-87e1-94dbdc3898e7> <div id=AOLMsgPart_0_91aaffbf-7a59-408c-9ccd-b9e329e5309c style="FONT-SIZE: 12px; MARGIN: 0px; COLOR: #000; FONT-FAMILY: Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, Sans-Serif; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #fff"><PRE style="FONT-SIZE: 9pt"><TT>Can someone tell who the current Petrof Importer is?
