We want to convince you that
we as manufacturers can allow
more than any piano agent.
We send it to our own fac

which costs us a trifling sum.
We have Is branches in which
to dispose of it. 1t costs the or
binary agent more than the
piano is worth to fix it up. He
does not do it, hence he gets
less for it and thus can allow
you but little.
Then you have your choice.
