Import Tips
• Include OEM compatibility statements (e.g
• Steinway-approved) to support piano-specific classification
• Declare exact quantity per piano (typically 220-230 pins) for statistical reporting accuracy
• Avoid generic labeling; specify 'piano tuning pins only' to prevent duty reassessment
