All About Choosing and Buying Pianos

Has anyone bought used piano from Century Piano located at The Plaza? They give warranty also. My daughter just started learning 2months ago. Used U1 imported from Japan cost $4350 with 10 yrs warranty, new chair, free delivery, 2 free tuning. Is it reasonable?
Where can I dispose an old piano? Rusty n moist. -
usually not recommended to buy used digital piano… as the technology moves too fast… why not consider acquostic?
-
How old is the used U1 piano? At the price of $4350 maybe can consider get those brand new china made piano (European brand).
The shop can give 10 years warranty but whether would they stay in the market for long is questionable.
I believed if you get piano from them, the shop would help you dispose away the piano. -
actually i am very confused… whether to get Yamaha or china made brand ?
any resale value for china made brand ?
the U1 is abt 20 yrs and direct import from Japan and the seller said that it is better to get Japan imported piano than the local piano cos our weather is more moist. -
It is like you are getting an old man/women (Piano) home in which pray hard it does not have any major illness. So at $4350 it is a 20 year old piano, does the shop take in a price if say you have use for 5 years?
Guess I would be looking at HL125 China Made Piano from Piano Master. -
Hi, seems like no one has heard about Karlchonderg from Chiu Piano. According to my coll, she bought it cos the Yamaha teacher at Thomson Plaza (which is just opp Chiu Piano) recommended it. The Yamaha teachers said her peers also recommended this brand.
Wonder if this is true. Any parents with kids taking lessons at Yamaha Thomson Plaza, could u verify? Thanks! -
The price of a China made piano is lower than Yamaha/Kawai so when you resell your piano, the percentage loss is not that great either even though you may sell at a low price but the main problem to me would be, whether there is a demand for the China piano.
-
I believe there is no demand for 2nd hand china piano. So china made piano best is to use until it beyond repair then scrap it or maybe some shop where they take in at 50% at the end of 5 years like Piano Master.

So embarassing :oops: but I'm still looking at purchasing piano. Didn't realize that I created this thread sometime back.
My eldest ds is now Grade 3 and currently using Clavinova. He seems really interested and still pursuing so I'm thinking I should get it as my ds2 is now learning as well.
Can someone recommend what type of piano would it be suitable?
Thanks! -
Hi. I was searching for a piano for my 5 year old son and came across Collard & Collard, which is a piano made in England. So my question is,
1. is it good/suitable for a child who just started learning piano?
2. Would he have any difficulty/difference when he goes for his exam?
Thank You.
