Question
Hello Todd,
I have a restored upright hackley piano and I found the number 69127
inside the piano and I assume that it is the serial number.  Can you give me
your best estimate on how much I should sell it for?  It has been in my family
for a long time and I must sell it because we are moving back to nyc and
cannot take it.  I don't have any papers and my family is not living so I
cannot ask anyone.  Best, sharon

Answer
Hi,



Thank you for using allexperts.

In our current economic and musical climate, we estimate the value of your piano to be at around $300. If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact us.

Sincerely,
