No terest Paying a Higher Price Is Not an Assurance ~} of Greater Value Because one Player Piano is priced from $100 to $150 higher than another, it does not necessarily follow that the former is actually worth more money. The higher price alone is not proof of superiority. In fact, in a great many instances purchasers have found just the reverse to be true.

We urge you, therefore, not to be guided merely by the price, but by the quality and reputation of the Player Piano you are about to purchase.
