    Dale, We are moving into retirement and need to pass along our Steinway reproducing grand, that is in good working order. If you are still in the market for one, please call 703 548 9614 in Arlington, VA or email to WLQJ@Juno.com Thanks! Bill Quinn

    I came across a Steinway model XR for sale for $2,500. I haven't gone to see it yet, but looks beautiful from the pics. If I have my piano tuner come look at it with me and it checks out ok, is that a good deal? Seems like it is to me. Thanks!

    Did you ever check it out? Does it have the repro system intact?

    I did check it out. The reproducer mechanism is there but doesn't work. Underneath the piano was a big piece of canvas so I couldn't see what was under there but the owner said the reproducer doesn't work. I'm not sure I want it since that part didn't
    work and I don't believe anything has ever been replaced so not sure if the soundboard would need replacing at some point. I don't want something I have to put more money into.
