Anyone in the seattle area need something like that?

this one?:
they're not actually electromechanical, but just electronic (no hammer and tines, just circuits). Analog pianos are really neat, though.
I think the tag said $500, but it was tough to see-I'm sure there is room to negotiate.
if so, $500 is waaaay too much for that thing. You can still score some of the yamaha cp 25s and 35s (they're a similar analog piano synth) for a couple hundred less than that on a regular basis. even on ebay.
as far as I know, crumar never made an electric piano, but if they did, it wouldn't be worth 500 either. there aren't enough of them to go around in case something goes wrong and you need parts.
kerble is right.
