January 2012 Thinking about buying a piano? You might enjoy reading some other people's stories, as compiled by Larry Fine, publisher of the on-line and print Acoustic & Digital Piano Buyer. (Previous news is in Archives) BUYING A USED PIANO? Thinking about buying a piano privately (like on Craig's List)? Save yourself from the disappointment of a piano that's untunable or has expensive problems. I'll do a purchase evaluation for $50. This could also apply to a used piano in a piano shop. Save yourself some money/disappointment in the long run! NEIGHBORHOOD DISCOUNT Piano technicians do not often offer discounts, but Bear Piano Services does: the Neighborhood Discount. Two or more pianos tuned the same day in the same neighborhood qualify you for a $10 discount. Call with dates that will work for you and your neighbors, and I will find a date that works for us all. |
