My buddy has a piano he wants to get rid of but we cant find how much its worth?

Its a wurlitzer p242, i guess its from the 80's, excellent condition, he wants to get rid of it, he was actually thinking of throwing it out(he doesnt play at all and he just wants it outa his house)

I figure its at a minimum worth $500 right?

Don't think anyone can make a defintiive judgement without seeing the piano.

Anyway, if you can't sell it, don't throw it away, at least give/donate it to someone who could use it. Perhaps a school.

We cant even find out how much they sold for, there is a minimum its worth without seeing it, if its in excellent condition its in excellent condition.

I found one listing on the P242 here.

They want $1000 OBO. Needs a tuning too. It really is a crapshoot though - i sold a nice Baldwin Acrosonic console for a mere $200 bucks because no one wanted it, regardless of condition. When something is a bitch to move, it's a bitch to move in any respect.

It's only worth as much as someone will pay for it. Period.

Put an add out and say - best offer. Or silent auction.

I noticed that particular ad expired in June of 2004. I suspect they did not sell it at that price.

I would suggest contacting a local piano tuner. These guys usually have a good idea about the worth of acoustic pianos.
