My point is only that (without sounding too insensitive) they got what they paid for. I'm sort of trying to hold my tongue here because I do empathize with the situation - but I just see it a bit differently. It is unfortunate that the store won't refund the money. However, it is still the responsibility of the consumer to know what they're purchasing. I'm sure an honest dealer would have been happy to help them find an instrument that suited their needs, was affordable, and could hold tune. That's not going to be at $350 though. The dealer will have more than $350 just in moving it, not to mention a fresh tuning and whatever prep work it may need. Now you've got $1000.00+ into a piano that you have to get back out of it, without even taking into consideration the value of the piano. I guess what I'm trying to say is: I feel sorry for the people, but I don't feel like they were taken advantage of - I feel like they made a bad decision. I hope that with their technician they can either make the instrument work, or find a way to remedy the situation, but I just don't see it as poor people being taken advantage of. Perhaps I've missed something though.
