Orchestrelle Metrostyle 65-Note 'push-up' Pianola for sale on Ebay at the moment. Unrestored and still just about working!

Also a Weber 88-note Upright Pianola in very attractive case.

Both items located near Devizes in Wiltshire, England.

As seems to be the current trend with these things (especially on Ebay) I'm not expecting very much for either of them - but it would be nice to think they'd at least go to another enthusiast.

Well they're both 'sold' in theory - whether the 'buyers' actually communicate with me is another matter! Ebay or rather some of its users certainly do try one's patience! I put a paragraph in bold red text on my listings asking buyers to communicate and keep me informed - but many still don't bother. I still have a model 5 Gotha Steck in my garage that was sold nearly six weeks ago. The chap paid for it (a tenner!) but I'm STILL waiting to hear about collection.

Ah well, rant over - I'm sure there's a moral in there somewhere!
