Let's just hope these pianos are not being re-imported secretely and sold on the European or American market. schwammerl.

If you think about it, it's what Steinway did with Boston, Yamaha do with their GC series, etc, and Brodmann was intended to be a Bosendorfer product at the initial stage of development. A quarter of the price of a new Bechstein would mean a 6' grand selling for about UKP15,000. This is about the price of a chinese grand today. They'll probably just sell them under the name Steinway or something.
