If it took me 5 hours I would be happy with $250.00.? The point is, they start by paying one price then gradually taper it off.? They did the same thing with their zinc capo bar fiasco.? Did several at $400.00 then they would only pay $320.00. Personally,?I wasn't "in the know" about this problem until just recently.? That being said, their must of been a lot of customers who did pay for a lot of?regulation because of the problem before even Young Chang new what was going on. ?I don't think the customer should pay anything at all because of this. Back in the late 90's when Yamaha was replacing Ivorite key sets out of warrantee, they NEVER gave me any guff about what I charged them. So, I am?going to what's right and just fix the piano.

My first and only. I think I got 300 from them. $50 to $60 and hour is not insulting. What might be considered insulting is the level of regulation they expect. If you, as an owner, had paid to have the piano kept in refined regulation, it should be brought back to that level.? ?

I have been reading all the posts regarding this problem.? Will someone please tell me what the current compensation is from Young Chang?? I think the price they quoted me is insulting. I printed the 2 page attachment that was on an earlier post, that was written by Phil Glenn.? The compensation at that time was $250.00-300.00.? John Chang, (no relation!) the person who I dealt with said $200.00 is their max.? If anyone on the list has done one of these jobs lately, would you please verify what it is you were paid??
