I'll have a think about how much keeping Gran's piano means to me.
Pretty sure ours will go on mother's pyre when the time comes. It served her well as an ersatz Morrison shelter during the Blitz, and now as both a memento of her grandmother and mother and a thorn in father's flesh as he lost half his front room without consultation or warning when my great aunt moved out of the family home and landed us with the instrument, but neither I nor any of my siblings has any interest in keeping it.

Cheers, that's what I wanted to know. Sounds like used cars then - second hand could be good or a lemon so take someone who knows about pianos and the cost if fixing them or buy from a dealer. I'll have a think about how much keeping Gran's piano means to me.
