    A friend of a friend is trying to sell his mother's Fazioli 212 to pay for his elderly mother's living expenses. I don't know much about the market for these, so any info I can pass on would be appreciated. The piano is near Columbus Ohio.

    Thanks!

    Currently, a new Fazioli 212 is $195K.
    Depending on the age and condition of your piano, the price can vary greatly as in any used instrument. I would be careful selling a piano privately to anyone because there are a lot of scams out there. If your friend's friend's mother had a competent piano technician looking after the piano, perhaps they may be able to help find a buyer but most people looking for a used piano are not looking to spend $$$. 
    I would advise them to contact the Fazioli dealer PianoForte in Chicago, which is not too far from Columbus, and see if they would take it in on consignment and how much the fee would be. If the piano needs work to make it sellable, a dealer will have to deduct the costs from the sale price.
