    If you're going to lose $10k or more swapping pianos, consider using that $10k to expand a room for the piano instead. Swapping piano is a straight "expense," expanding a room may be an "investment." 😉

      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!

        @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.

        @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???

            @Mik I've never even heard of Persinas. Now I have to go Google...

              I think Mik has a Perzina grand, maybe?

                Good luck. Hope it sells for a good price and soon.

                  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.
