[disklavier] Re: Price on DGH1BIIXG (5'3")??

1999-12-20 by Jack Schueler

I believe we purchased the DGH1B in 1995 for approx Cdn$22,000.  At recent
conversion rates this would be about US$15,000.  This was not an XG
model.  They included a Yamaha TG100 tone generator in the price.
We have been very pleased with it ever since.

The dealer was Walter's Music, Yorkdale Mall, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

I'm also looking to purchase a 5'3" disklavier, and I've been collecting
some information on pricing.  My understanding is that at ~45% to ~60%
margin, many dealers ask the following:

DGH1B IIXG $23,222.40 to $27,029.60
DC1 IIXG $26,870.40 to 33,269.60
DC1S $29,078.40 to 31,501.60

Negotiating to ~26% margin would result in:

DGH1B IIXG $18,000
DC1 IIXG $20,300
DC1S $22,000

The best prices I've heard people claim are: (Has anyone on the list done
better than this?)

DGH1B IIXG $15,600
DC1 IIXG $18,800

If anyone else has pricing information on the 5'3" disklaviers, I'd be very
interested.  I'll offer to summarize any data sent to me in a message to the
group.
