Good evening,

my family and I own a Neumeyer upright piano about which, unfortunately, we do not have much information. Due to lack of space and the fact that the piano is actually not being used, we have thought about putting it up for sale, but we really have no idea what a correct valuation might be.

I therefore thought of turning to you in this beautiful forum, to find someone who is able to give me some indications, perhaps just by taking a look at the photos I took of the instrument, and maybe giving me some more information.

Thank you in advance and I wish you a good evening.

Marco

Dear Marco,

sorry for the late reply, but I had missed your post. I'll tell you right away that it is difficult or almost impossible to evaluate an instrument without seeing and hearing it. The piano seems to me aesthetically to be a respectable instrument, but it would need to be examined closely. It is a high measure and this is in its favor. However, we don't know if it holds the tuning, what the sound output is like, or the condition of the strings... in short, one cannot pronounce judgment from a distance. I see positive images and if the intrinsic quality of the instrument corresponds to its exterior beauty, it could be put up for sale at about €2,500. But everything remains to be seen.

Bye and sorry for the delay
