All About Choosing and Buying Pianos

Hi Goody Girl,
Is it true that a piano that is more than 15 years are not recommended? The Yamaha sales person also told me that in general second piano are from japan and the woods are not tropicalized, unless those sold in singapore are specially for our weather. really wonder how true are these?
anyone else are welcome to provide feedbacks. Thanks! -
hi checkered, i dunno if its true tat a piano above 15yrs is not recommended.. but when i went to yamaha during my shopping period, i remember asking them: \" how long can a piano last?\" (i mean a new piano from them) their answer was \"oh 30- 40yrs also no problem\" hahaha.. so i was thinking why they turn ard & say dun buy above 15yrs...
anyway after i bought mine.. i got to know tat my hubby's colleague bought from them too. (7-8yrs ago!) but they bought theirs in the old address at daimaru.. i saw their piano b4 during hse warming.. i didnt think it looked usedthink its a kawai

Hi,
Any expert here can give me some comment on Wilhelm Tell piano, Model is Geneva -
Hi!
Can someone advise me how much roughly is a old piano like Kawai BS1A cost? Have anyone heard of Chopin brand of piano? I know nowadays a lot of pianos are made in China, does it make a difference with “parts from european country (like Germany) and assembled in China”? -
Hi!
Can anyone comment on Kawai BS1A? I think this model is made around 1990-1991… I was recommended to this person who is thinking of selling hers. She got it from 2nd hand shop i think a year ago. She is asking for $3k! is this too expensive? -
Has anyone come across this brand: CHOPIN? They are having a sale…

Hi,
We just come across this brand Hailun. It’s made in china and apparently, seems like very saleable overseas. The price range is also very good for a new piano. does anyone get this brand and can comment on it?
