Dave asked
SO----- QUESTION
Has anybody on the list had success charging
premium prices for premium and complete
work rebuilding uprights for resale?(Rebuilding
Grandma's piano is separate issue)
Has anyone found a market/ people willing to pay
for such rebuilt-resale pianos,
when a variety of new instruments can be
purchased in this price range. Or am I correct
assuming this is universally uneconomical.
Cheers

David,
Believe it or not but I will do between 3 - 5 of these beauties every year
without fail. And I get a nice dollar for my efforts!! Granted you have to
limit your efforts to very fancy case high quality pianos. A reconizable
name doesn't hurt either, but most people around here haven't heard of Steiff
or Crown but within the past month I sold one of each. I have been patient
in developing this part of my business, word of mouth has helped a lot.
If you want any more info please respond privately.
