Patrick and list, Thank you for your response(s). I traded a Baldwin Hamilton for it. I deliver it and pick up the M&H tomorrow morning. Thanks all!

He said he paid $2500 for one a couple years ago, but that was before the overall slump in the economy had sunk in. He figures he can only get about $24K for it after remanufacturing the whole thing (and a long wait for the right buyer); the same amount of work on a Steinway would sell at a higher price, and much, much more readily. He would pay less if he were considering picking up a M&H for spec rebuilding now.
