FREE Piano
 
3 Attachment(s)
Just moved into our house in the Villages and it came furnished. There is a 2 year old piano that came with the house we do not want. Offering it for free to any church that may need one. Even willing to pay for the delivery. Just looking for a tax write off. It is a Hallet, Davis, & Co. Grand Piano. Again only 2 years old. Let me know if interested.

Check with the local school districts also, they may be interested.

You might try putting it on a free marketplace site, too.

Good Idea!

BTW, I'm not familiar with the brand, but that is a gorgeous piano (says she who had an ungorgeous baby grand growing up...). Have you had it appraised?

OP you need to get that appraised. If it's a grand, and not a baby grand, it could be worth anywhere between $10,000-30,000. Your tax write-off might not be nearly as good as the sales value.

A 2-year-old baby grand from Hallet, Davis, & Co would probably sell between $1000-5000. That would probably be a useful write-off.

Funny, how when your kids were very young and you wanted a piano so they could practice piano lessons, a deal like that was never available.

No country for pianos
 
Good luck - we had to post ours on Craigslist for free - and then got people wanting It who had no way to get it home.

You might check with the Recreation department, and see if they might want it in the foyer of the Savannah Center or any of their other larger rec centers.

I know a retired piano teacher who would love to put that if you don't sell it!

Any thoughts about the school system? The high School might be receptive.Tom
