If I had a bigger house and either of those played half decent I would actually be interested in adding to my collection. (see signature)

Ok, Ok, this has nothing to do with pianos. But it made me laugh so hard I had to share. Sorry. Just to keep things semi on topic, I also included the "Big old upright for guns" posting that I also saw today. Enjoy.... ![[Linked Image]](http://pianova.net/media2/horrible.cat.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://pianova.net/media2/bigolupright.jpg)

http://detroit.craigslist.org/okl/msg/3794486649.htmlBlack Grand Piano, Must go!!! I like how they used a stock photo of a Steinway and scribbled out the brand name.

[link] http://stlouis.craigslist.org/zip/3829058711.html[/link] I'm just guessing, but I think I see what one "repair" might be.

Those are GREAT! I actually did L.augh O.ut L.oud on these, especially the last one. It is amazing to me that people will post pictures of pianos covered with crap! This looks like an episode of Hoarders!

The daughter must have played that Bob Dylan song with the line, "Ah, but I was so much older then; I'm younger than that now."

Wow. Maybe it lights up too. (I wonder if the door handle display on the right is also for sale!)

This shop is still using one of my photos from my shop. The Victorian Steinway "A" second picture. Seen this add in a few locations. Even though he said he would remove it. He has not. FUNNY???? http://spokane.craigslist.org/msg/3850876608.html

NOT FUNNY !!!!
This scammer should have legal action brought against him. Obviously the pictures he shows are not of his work. It is flat out false advertising, and I would like to seem him produce a rebuilt/restored M&H for $1.

It's much easier to bash a Steinway than it is to play one.

It is flat out false advertising, and I would like to seem him produce a rebuilt/restored M&H for $1. Not to defend someone using pictures from another person's shop, but it's commonplace on Craigslist to use $1 ads like the one in this link when advertising a business rather than specific items. I don't feel like wading through Craigslist's terms of use, but I imagine using pictures from someone else's shop violates them. Ron, you should click the "prohibited" link to the right of the word "flag". Andy
