I placed an order with Player Piano Parts, Inc. (former Player Piano
Co.) several months ago and received most of what I ordered but not
the "out of stock suction pump".  Recently I received a call indicating
that they had more suction boxes in stock and if I still wanted the
item.  I inquired if they were restocking items and if they intended
to continue in the player parts/materials business.

The answer I received was not a "yes" or a "no" but something about
the order department was not in the same location as the warehouse,
so she didn't know what was available or what might be in the future.

So it appears that as of now, one can still get certain parts from
Player Piano Parts, Inc.  Anyone have additional information on this
situation?
