In regard to the restoration costs of reproducing players.  As you
probably should know by now the market is terribly depressed on any
smaller unadorned reproducing grand players.  The upright market is a
little better but just barely.  The electric digital grands have ruined
the market place except for true believers and collectors.

You should be able to find a good quality player baby grand in very
good restored condition for anywhere from seven to fifteen thousand
dollars.  Upright reproducers should run five to seven thousand in
very good restored condition.  As for as-found units, five hundred to
two thousand, grands and uprights.  The only exception to this rule are
Steinways, Mason and Hamlins, and art case pianos.

I know of several units in restored or unrestored condition right now.
I have a 5'8" Chickering Ampico as-is, and an upright Duo-Art Stroud
and several others, plus restored units that are in private hands, for
sale.
