Good points, though it would be a pretty rare occurrence for the date of someone's piano being tuned to be a point of contention. The added cost would not be insignificant. For me it would be close to $50/ month extra for postage, plus the cost of the envelopes, plus the time spent folding and stuffing- probably an extra hour. I understand privacy concerns. Today I got a call from someone who identified themselves as being from Discover card. They asked if I was the primary cardholder. I said, "Why do you want to know and how do I know you are from Discover?" He was unprepared for that one. He was trying to sell some kind of add on. I was not interested.

If you've ever been through a reeeeealy nasty divorce or known someone who has, you might be aware of the weird privacy concerns some people might have. "Mrs Jones, do you have a piano? Do you play, or is this piano for your son Billy? Are you aware that Billy has expressed that he doesn't like to take piano lessons? How often do you have your piano tuned? Isn't this a bit excessive, in light of the fact that most people have their pianos tuned every ___(time period)___? or -- Here is an affidavit from ___(our tuner)___ recommending tuning more frequently -- every ___. In light of this, would you say that you are neglecting your piano, which I believe is marital property? True, this is all incredibly stupid, but your savings of a few pennies on a postcard could cost your client hundreds of dollars in legal fees when privacy is breeched. It's far better, IMO, to put everything in an envelope. FAIW...
