Have we done a piano-shopping thread on this forum yet?

I asked my tech about selling my piano…I’d lose about $10k on the deal. So it lives here, I play it occasionally, and use it to learn my choir parts.
For you? Sell privately or donate. Can you actually take a deduction for what you think is the right value?

@ShiroKuro There's a spot for it on the front wall of the living room, and a smaller spot for it on the front wall of the downstairs guest room. It's just that we have other plans for what to do with that space.
I'll set myself a time-limited sell-it-or-donate-it window and free up the space.

That is an awesome piano that can make a real difference to an organization looking for a donation - whether it be a church or school... Too often I am asked to take a look at some old Kimball or Wurlitzer microgrand that someone thinks will be a great gift to their church!

@Mary-Anna ahh so you do have a spot for it initially, that’s good. M
I totally get the “other plans for the space” point.When I first played my piano in its new space (just last week), and complained about the layout, Mr SK said “we’ll do you want to put it in the living room?” (Which of course is what many WTFers suggested weeks ago!)
But no, we had plans for how we’re using this space. I said, you know we can relocate the piano later if we really decide that that’s what we want to do, so let’s see how it goes.
You may end up saying the same. See how it goes when you get there and stay flexible. Maybe you’ll end up wanting to keep it in the guest room???

I can't believe y'all don't remember that piece of PF history. He was my fave sales weasel. Only guy I ever knew who could type with a fake accent.
I just found a thread over at PW….:
