But that price is for a 6 pack, who needs 6 grand pianos?

As much as people joke about stuff like this, a University's music program or something could probably take advantage of something like that.

At work, we used to get the discounted NetJets subscriptions (still like $15k) from Costco because it was a crazy good deal and we would charter flights for some emergency issues where it made financial sense to use a private/charter flight to get on-site faster because the issue is costing $20-50k/minute of downtime.

Sure, your average person isn't taking advantage of those deals, but someone does or else Costco wouldn't offer them.

No joke, it looks like that may be the price for both units you can see there. Hard to tell from the sign, but it has two product codes with a + between.

Seems a bit steep for a single grand piano, and just about right for two.

Might just be the piano + bench SKUs

"We have grand piano, yes, but what about second grand piano?“

"I don't think he knows about that, Count Pippin"

"What about harpsichordsies? Noon cello?"

Missing guns to be Phil Spector.

I thought I was asked to join a sex tent, I didn't really know what the pianos had to do with it but I wasn't gonna say no.

I appreciate this joke very much. :)

You know, you think that the first time, but if you go for it (and have the storage) you’ll be surprised at how glad you are to have them!
