Hello everyone, After reading several postings on the MMD regarding
QRS, I figured I would submit the official response.
QRS did indeed discontinue the Old Roll Auction. It was a sad day
when the decision was made because Dan Wilke was an extremely knowledge
and valuable asset to the company. With the closing of the auction Dan
has left the company to seek employment elsewhere. We will certainly
miss him!
Manufacturing of new rolls has been suspended until August. As Mike
Walter reported, we have plenty of stock to fill orders until the
factory returns. The late catalog certainly did not help. We are
planning a much earlier catalog this year, and we will continue to
offer new roll titles and new products as long as there is demand
to support it.
The Story & Clark operation has not been closed. We have found that
console sales have been decreasing while production remained at the
same level, so we are reduced the console staff until sales exceed
production. We are continuing to produce our Hampton Grands, we do
import some pianos from overseas and assemble and ship our Pianomation
System.
Our corporate offices moved to Naples, Florida, last year.
We certainly appreciate everyone's support in the past, and look
forward to being able to provide a good product and good service
for many years to come.
