there are many many free pianos on craigslist

the other is just the matter of demoing a perfectly good piano


but i do wonder what happens to these

is there a market maybe overseas for pianos

it really seems a shame to think they might end up as landfill

Many dry to the point that the pinblock developes cracks and they become untune-able. They de-tune so fast as to become worthless. I would hesitate to scrap the wood and iron from one like this.
