IV. ADVANTAGES OF BUYING A PIANO FROM ME OVER ANY OTHER KSL LISTING OR A PIANO STORE:
A. Reasonable Pricing: As a one-man/family operation, my overhead is very low. I pass that on to the customer, as my prices attest. You don’t pay for retail space, staff or sales people, store utilities, or big-budget marketing.
B. Condition
1. I spend many, many hours repairing where needed, regulating where needed, and cleaning where needed every piano I sell.
2. The vast majority of used pianos on ksl haven’t been seen by a professional for at least a year or two, often more than ten years. They usually require an extensive amount of costly work: repair, tuning, regulation, cleaning, replacement of worn or missing parts. This is already done on my pianos.
C. Delivery: I deliver my pianos to Salt Lake and Utah Counties at no extra charge. (ground floor only, please.)
D. Bench: Most of my pianos include a durable, high-quality bench with a music compartment.
E. Tuned: My pianos come tuned to A-440, the international standard pitch.
F. Clean: My pianos are immaculately clean. Where needed, all wood & metal-inside & out-has been vacuumed, blown, & oiled to perfection.
G. Warranty: I guarantee my pianos against sticking keys, squeaky pedals or action, or any other similar issues for a full year in Salt lake and Utah counties. Should any problems occur, I will be out asap to correct the issue.
H. Me!!! When you buy a piano from me, you get a highly experienced piano technician for life. Pianos require semi-annual or annual maintenance. I will stand by my pianos, I hope to form a professional relationship with you, and I hope to become your regular service technician.
