A few Unsolicited Comments from our Customers

From LM in North Bethesda MD who bought a 2007 Steinway Model O Grand

"Harry, the Piano is just wonderful. It is so appreciated at home"

From LK in Austin, Texas who bought a 1890's Steinway Grand

"Harry: I just sent you a photo of me standing by the Steinway in my living room.  It is beautiful, just as beautiful as we all thought it would be.  I gave a mini-concert for my husband and daughter-in-law last night.  My other children are coming tonight to see and hear it.
 
Thank you again for all your professional manner in this transaction.  If I can ever give a recommendation, please give my name.  I would be more than happy to do that.
 
Thank you for the name of the technician.  I wanted to have someone who would know really how to appreciate these special pianos.
 
The movers were excellent, very professional and courteous.  I give my highest recomendations to them also."

From John in the Midwest, who bought a vintage Steinway grand for himself and a slightly used Steinway B for a family member

"I saw the pianos this evening and they arrived in very good condition.  You have been so helpful and really made me feel very at ease about making these purchases sight unseen.
I  will recommend you to anyone that needs to buy a piano. Thank you so much for your patience and thanks for being so responsive to all my questions. "

From Paul in Ft. Walton Beach, FL, we marketed and sold his 1900 Steinway Model A-II Art Case

"I sold my 1900 Steinway grand piano through Grand Grands.  Harry and his team did a quality job from beginning to end.  The photographs they took were very professional and highlighted the physical beauty of my piano.  The video demonstrated its wonderful, singing tone.  Harry worked with me to set a good asking price.  He handled all negotiations with interested buyers -- confirming the seriousness of their interest, arranging for inspection and shipping, drawing up the bill of sale and arranging for the transfer of funds -- while consulting with me every step of the way.  Harry made the sale of my piano profitable and painless, even in the current soft market.  I recommend Grand Grands without reservation."

From Doug in Kansas City, MO who bought a rebuilt 1908 Steinway Model A-II Art Case

I met Harry as a first time purchaser.  I was very particular about what I was looking for, and I had been "going it alone"  in my search for a vintage restored Steinway grand piano for nearly two years.  Althougn I came across countless candidate pianos along the way, I was not able to find the right piano for the right price from the right rebuilder.  Harry changed all of that rather quickly.  Equally, if not more important, he served as a trusted intermediary for both me and the rebuilder. The end result was my complete satisfaction.  Without reservation, I recommend Harry and Mobley's Inc. to any prospective piano purchaser.

From Jerry in Gardnerville, NV who bought a rebuilt 1920 Steinway Model O ebony

Late yesterday afternoon I happened to glance out my front door and saw a box from UPS on the front porch.  Not expecting any deliveries, I was quite surprised to see that the Steinway lock key had arrived.  I’ve seen photos of the key, but the real thing is quite impressive.  It’s solid brass and beautifully cast and polished.  I expect to make a satin ebony plaque with a Steinway lyre logo and a nice hook for the key.  It will go somewhere on a wall as a piece d’art.

As for the piano, François tuned it a second time and did some regulation on the action.  We are both amazed at how well it’s settling in here.  I played several Model Ls and maybe an “O” or two in music school and don’t remember any that sounded as big as life as mine.  I was somewhat concerned about the very low bass when I first saw it..  The bass seems to be taking care of itself nicely.  It’s now becoming full and rich.  This is truly a magnificent Steinway and I’m delighted and quite proud to own it.

From Gessica in Torino, Italy (piano dealer) who bought 6 Steinway Grands
"I have been working with Mr. Mobley since 2004 and I met him and his family twice. He is a great person and it is a pleasure doing business with him. At that moment I bought no. 6 Steinway & Sons Grand Piano"
------------------------

From Leo in California who bought a Mason & Hamlin Model BB Walnut
"At one time in my career I was a professional purchasing agent and I will tell you, without hesitation, that Harry Mobley is one of the most honest, dependable, and forthright people that I've met.  He did everything he said he would do - even when a slight glitch took place - he immediately solved the problem even though he had nothing to do with the cause. I did not know him until I bought a piano from him but now I consider him to be a friend.  You may end up the same way."

From Buddie and Mary Kay in Texas who bought a rebuilt vintage Steinway Grand Model S Mahogany
"My husband and I bought a Steinway piano from Harry sight unseen other than looking  at a picture of it on the internet.  Buddie (my husband) talked to Harry and Don, who rebuilds for him.  Last Christmas (we have an annual  Christmas party and wanted to make sure it was tuned), so a friend of our recommended a man who rebuilds Steinway's in Dallas and tunes them on the side.  When he came out he kept going on about what a beautiful, wonderful sounding piano we had - where did we get it - it hardly needed to be tuned even though we had it for a year at that time.  Also, our piano was rebuilt with all Steinway parts, which most people don't do, according to the tuner. We paid to have Harry's delivery man deliver it to us in Texas from Tennessee.  Buddie and I can tell you that we were very satisfied with our purchase and our dealings with Harry. You have been a pleasure to deal with and we want to be on your recommendation list. Thank you, Mary Kay"

From Bill & Stacy in Michigan: Sent a vintage Steinway Grand in for rebuild/restoration and Piano Disc installation
"We absolutely LOVE this piano. You all did such a fantastic job. I think we got hung up on a couple of concerns and the message that we really, really love the piano got lost in the
shuffle. The finish on the piano is remarkable and the sound is fantastic.
If you ever want a strong recommendations, we would love to provide it.
Truly, I don't think we have ever been treated better or had better quality work."

From R.B. in New Jersey. a Steinway Artist, performing Artist, and teacher: purchased a rebuilt 1982 Steinway Model D Concert Grand
"Owning Steinway pianos all my life, I have frequently been disappointed in the quality of work I've witnessed in rebuilt instruments despite the impressive resumes and accolades of the providers. Buying a Steinway is easy but where to buy it is another story. The more time I spend with my new piano, the more I realize what a quality instrument I have. You have made this venture a most enjoyable experience and provided me with an instrument I've waited for all my life. You are to be commended on the service, workmanship and professionalism you have provided. The sound, the feel, the appearance and price of my Steinway D were beyond my expectations. I would not hesitate recommending your five star establishment to the most demanding professional. Bravo! "

rewarding."

From M.C. in Georgia: purchased a rebuilt/restored 1935 Steinway Model M Mahogany
"I just wanted you to know my piano teacher tried my piano out today. Her comment was, "Now THAT'S a piano!" She really ( I mean really) liked it. I am adjusting to the differences from the old to the new, and I fear I will be spoiled very soon.
Thanks for all you've done to help get the piano to me. I have nothing but praise for your help during my visit and for keeping me informed during the delivery process."

From C.T. in Florida: purchased a 1969 Steinway Model M
"From the time of our first telephone conversation I was aware that I was speaking to a gentleman with the highest professional standards. I appreciated this as well as your patience while I tried to decide what to do and how to do it. You made the purchase as pleasant as the actual arrival of the piano. I am so very pleased with it. It is visible from nearly all the living areas of the house and each time I see it, I'm happy that I waited to have this piano and did not settle for another one."

From D. N in California: purchased a Young Chang Pramberger JP-175 Grand

said you would. It's not easy buying a piano

From L.G. in Wisconsin: purchased a Nordiska Grand
"Yes, I love my piano!!! Poor Dan..we're in the middle of adding an addition
to our house, and the ground was too wet to bring their truck around to the
back. They had to take the piano out the back door and down a flight of
stairs, but they did it! Thanks again so much!"

------------------------

From R.J. in South Carolina: purchased a Young Chang PG-157 w/Pianodisc
"I received a phone call from a very nice gentleman of San Fran last evening…your good reputation is spreading! I spoke with him at some length about my experience with you, the instrument, PianoDisc Systems, and internet business.

My easy job in this regard was simply to tell unvarnished truth. It is my opinion after the conversation is that you will probably have another satisfied customer very soon. It must be very pleasing to put the beauty and peace of music in appreciative hands.

Having that instrument in my home for the past year has been a cherished, significant part of keeping several lives balanced, meaningful, and inspired.

Although I did not share that piece of information with the California Gentleman, you are free to refer to it as proof positive of potentially priceless rewards of what you are marketing."

to me. Thanks for all your help."
