If wea told that Xmas sale by sales but it really depends on how gd deal can be got

If I recalled correctly, U1 ever sold at mid $8K during one of its sales.
Really depends on which model they're 'pushing' during that sale, then that model would have greater discount than other models

Hi engp9337,

One way is to leave your phone number with the sales staff and have them sms you whenever they have sales. I recalled receiving periodical sales info from Yamaha via sms.

Have you visited the showroom at Plaza Singapura? Besides the pianos on display, try asking the sales staff (a guy, if I'm not wrong) to let you try out the higher range pianos such as the YUS series. No committment required and it enhances the piano shopping experience.

As far as I know, it's not easy to get further discounts in terms of cash as a walk-in customer. However, you may try requesting for extras such as one or two more tuning sessions or a piano cover. The sales staff is more likely to oblige to such requests.

I believe Yamaha students are given further discounts on the promotional prices. So, if you know of any Yamaha students, you might consider approaching them (or their parents). There is also this Yamaha membership card (which can be applied over the counter for a fee) that entitles the card holder to 5% (or is it 10%?) discount on books & accessories in the store. But I am not sure if it extends to piano purchases.

hi, chamonix


Thanks a lot for your great information.

Thanks again, starz, for the heads up on the sale!


Went to PS Yamaha branch the past Mon, and managed to get a Clavinova at sale price. Apparently, it's their National Day promotion.

Heard from the sales staff that there'll be promotion for the acoustic pianos in Sept. So those looking for brand new acoustics might wanna keep a lookout!

hi all,

I was told that the price of piano keeps rising, esp. for acoustic pianos, is that true?

[jce]

Yes, generally prices for acoustic pianos (and other acoustic instruments) rise.
