My new Ancott Associates book just arrived today. I've checked out the prices. Buy a Kawai RX-3(6'1"), a comparable piano to the Yamaha C3 (in my opinion). Maybe save enough money to buy yourself a new computer.
The Ancott book lists all pianos and their suggested retail price. Dealer cost is determined by using a code.

Oh ....Please.... a Petrof is better than a Yamaha.... I can't believe someone
would dare make that comparison. Sorry but this one is a strong... I DON"T
THINK SO!
Yamaha will be a great piano at that price.

<< I can attest that the price you have gotten for a C 3 is a very good one.
However, IMHO that is not the best piano for your money.
A PROPERLY prepped Petrof may be available in that range - you are also
in a range where you might consider a world class rebuilt grand that will
knock the socks off of that Yamaha. If any rebuilders have a Mason & Hamlin
or
Steinway rebuild - play it.
Remember, that Yamaha will be there next week too.
