What is it about that piano that she thinks she HAS to have it in her home? Ask her if she would put a 85 year old dusty moldy couch in her living room. Maybe she thinks that since the mold is on the insides, it won't bother her. This is a similar situation as what Les Bartlett asked about. (bad pin block on a Chickening grand). For your own safety, stay away from this piano. Her ignorance should not be your problem. Why should you put your own health at risk, just so that she can have a "pretty piece of furniture" in her living room?
