I am being asked to value or appraise reproducing grands with
some frequency these days.  I have been following the auctions
on eBay.  I have seen Duo-Art and Ampico grands offered for
$1,000 to $25,000.  Some are restored, some are not.

I have never actually seen one sell.  Is everyone making deals
off-list?  Are they selling?  There is an unrestored J&C Fischer
on eBay today for $15,000.  That seems very, very high to me.
Can anyone shed some light on the situation, or direct me to
a discussion in the Archives?

Thanks,
