In the Chicago area these pianos are generally appraised at a bit less
than the corresponding smaller piano, because they all have trapwork
problems (shift pedal requires a block to be added to bottom of keyframe
and removed whenever action is pulled out), and customers don't seem
to like the idea of a small piano taking up more room than it really needs.
(they are no fun to tune either-those pins are a long ways away from
the keys.) I have had customers with them, but none at present.
