I know we kicked this around a few months ago. I know any dealer has a "right" to sell as bad merchandise as they please. It just buggs me tho. Today I tried to tune a 5'7" McPhail (McFAIL?) grand that had been refinished (poorly) the plate was sprayed over the strings. One key button had been replaced, and it was sold as "refurbished." This was a customer that could have afforded better had she been educated about pianos. Now daughter is taking lessons, and I'm sure will loose interest prematurely because she has to practice on such a POS. I know, I know. It's legal. It's just irritating when he skins her and I get the job of telling her why it will never sound good. dave -- _______________________________________________ David M.
