<DIV>How many used or rebuilt 9' pianos have you sold? It's a tough market
for those pianos. Every musician wants a 7' piano, but few have the space,
nor want to hear the volume of a 9' piano in their home.</DIV>

A carcass value of $10K? A 7' Steinway can get that much. Don't
<BR>forget, this is a piano valued new at $175,000. I would put a carcass
value <BR>of around <BR>$40,000 -- $50,000. <BR><BR>My uneducated opinion.
