12] Where can I get the best deal on a digital piano?

Prices vary greatly depending on the make and the model, and the
suggested retail price (SRP) can range anywhere from $1500 to $7000.
Don't be daunted by this, though. You can buy most of these from
mail-order houses for substantial discounts, as much as 50% off the
SRP. Some local dealers may or may not try to match the mail order
price. You will just have to shop around and ask. There are many
mail-order firms. Any copy of the magazines "Keyboard", "Electronic
Musician" or "Piano and Keyboard" will have ads for them.

You might also want to do a search on google or other of your favorite
online search site to get most up-to-date information on available
models and current ball-park prices.

NOTE:
One thing you will want to consider is, that in some states, a
"Use Tax" law is enforced, which is a sales tax levied on mailorder
purchases made out-of-state and delivered out-of-state. If you are
not aware, you may receive a rude surprize few years down the road
from the Department of Revenue of your state. If you are found liable
to the Use Tax, and did not file a Use Tax return by 15 April of the
following year, you may be required to pay up to double the sales tax
amount in taxes, interest, and penalties.
