It is the perception of what the customer is hearing, just as it is the perception of what the web site says. In truth, everything Steinway says is true. What bothers me a little is that they make it sound as if only Steinway pianos appreciate in value. What I am a little upset with is that the other manufacturers don't step up to the plate and defend their product. All pianos are selling for twice what they did 10 years ago. All pianos appreciate in value at about the sate rate as a Steinway. As you said "A greedy dealer and a greedy customer are each other's lawful prey" The question is, is Steinway a greedy company, or are the dealers greedy to get the sale?
