Topics: baby grand piano, how to sell, lester 1947

Hail to Fridays! I truly need assistance from all of you smart people.

We have a five foot Baby Grand Piano ... a 1947 LESTER, manufactured in Philadelphia, PA.

How do you recommend I sell it? It needs extensive work but still resonates beautifully. The appraisal said it was $8,000(+) insurance value for replacement.

Hopefully, you good people will come up with helpful answers.

P.S. White House Cherry ice cream, with chocolate syrup.

1. Craigslist........ your would be surprised.
2. Set up a single page site with pics and info about the piano. Then go to twitter, add people with anything to do with pianos. Tell them what you are doing and see how they can help since they are in the industry.

  so on twitter you go to search.twitter.com type in piano and you will get people that talked about pianos here is the search link search.twitter.com/search?q=piano. People that play and love pianos will know someone that might want to buy or need a piano. Network to find a buyer.
  
  OR you can put a add on craigslist.com and see if you get any takers.
