Quick Assessment
How old is my piano, who built it, and what is it worth today? With our Quick Assessment you receive an expert answer by email, usually within 24 hours (on business days) after payment.
€24.95 incl. VAT
What you receive
- Age: the year of manufacture based on the serial number or, if no number can be found, an age estimate based on your photos
- Maker: background on the manufacturer, its significance and special features
- Current value: a non-binding estimate of today’s value as a range
- Ivory: whether your keys might contain ivory and what to consider when selling, giving away or disposing of the instrument
- Recommendation: brief advice on whether keeping, restoring, selling or giving the instrument away makes sense
How it works
- Send us a non-binding request using the form. We need 3 to 5 photos: overall view, serial number, keyboard and a look inside (cast-iron plate with the maker’s name). You can upload the photos in the form or simply reply to our confirmation email with the pictures attached.
- We review your details and send you an offer. You can pay conveniently via PayPal (card payment without a PayPal account is usually possible as well) or by bank transfer.
- After payment you receive your assessment by email, usually within 24 hours on business days.
Good to know
The Quick Assessment is an expert estimate based on your information and photos. It is not a formal appraisal and not legal advice. For a detailed written assessment, an on-site inspection or for official purposes, such as an EU marketing certificate for ivory, we offer our Piano Appraisal.
