Hi List. I just was presented with an opportunity to either help sell or buy outright a 10 year old satin ebony Yamaha C7. A 30ish woman has owned it since new and has had it tuned (serviced?) regularly. All indications are it is in VERY good condition. It is currently in storage (she moved into an apartment) and she may sell it for near wholesale cost (does not want the hassle of selling it privately). I am looking for 4 values (or ranges). I have some ideas, but I do not deal often with big, newer pianos :-(, so any good input would be appreciated. 1. Cost today new (new Yamaha C7) - 2. Used dealer selling price (price a piano dealer would ask/sell the 10 y.o. Yamaha C7 for) - 3. Used private sale selling price (like if the owner were to sell it through an ad in the local newspaper) - 4. Used wholesale value (price dealer would pay for it) - Terry Farrell Piano Tuning & Service Tampa, Florida mfarrel2@tampabay.rr.com
