[CAUT] loan programs

[Jim Busby]

All,

This is one instance where old posts/info might not be helpful and we should probably see what current programs exist. My experience from 10 years ago wasn't positive, mainly because they kept moving inventory around; i.e. as soon as I would prep and stabilize a piano they would sell it, then give me a new, green one as a replacement.

What is available nowadays? If Mark doesn't know, (and he is usually on top of the game) do any of the rest of you? I'm just askin'.

Hi James,

these terms sound identical to those offered by (the) two major manufacturers offering loaner programs in past. The program we were involved with was beneficial overall, while others have found their experience less so.

Nonetheless, I'm not sure either of these two companies still offer the loan program, as a result of recent economics. Unfortunate, if so, as IMHO there is still a need, and with it plenty of "opportunities," as you mention.

best regards,
