If it said $180,000 I’d say no…
But $179,999.99 that’s a bargin!
It’ll still cost you $180,000 though, good luck getting a penny back these days.
If you sweet talk the clerk she might round it down to 179,999.95
I can’t remember the last time I shopped at a place with a clerk. I guess the local hardware store.
But that price is for a 6 pack, who needs 6 grand pianos?
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?”
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!
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.
My problem is that I fall for it every single time.
I can barely afford the storage building payments for all of these pianos.
I don’t know what I’m going to do if I end up falling for it again.
Does the rule of nines really apply for amounts this high? Just call it 180k ffs.
I like to round to .2 mill for simplicity
I honestly wonder if their generous return policy extends to something like that.
Unfortunately, pianos come with strings attached.
Yeah better blow your money on a trumpet!
Honestly, don’t buy a piano unless the strings are attached.
I have to admit I appreciate the behavioral psychology behind Costco’s layout.
They put the expensive things first and up front so that, on your way into the store, you’ve been mentally anchored to high prices (even if they’re prices for things you’d never buy). If you even considered or said to yourself “well, maybe someday” about their TVs, computers, or pianos, you are spending the rest of your time in Costco seeing prices for everything else and saying to yourself “hm, this might be a little expensive (even if it’s not), but at least it’s not the price of those grand pianos/TVs/computers in the entrance. Sold!”
Iirc they also purposely don’t label what foods or items are down which aisles so you have to go down them and, on the way, perhaps see something you hadn’t thought you needed before.
Pretty sneaky but effective stuff.
I’m so glad my parents bought me a $50 electric keyboard to lose interest in…
That’s not even a good deal. You can get one in Germany for 150.000$. (Tax included)
But then I’d have to pay for shipping it from Germany, and probably a tariff on top of that
Is there a 50-pack?
They’ve really got it all!
I had to deliver one of these coffins one time doing last mile logistics. What a shit show! Dude said he was at home when we called and that under no uncertain circumstances were we allowed to deliver it for the next few hours. Like dude! I can’t just drive around with this thing for hours, making other deliveries! I get that you’re probably in a rough place, but the world doesn’t stop for one person. We decided to never take on this type of contract again.
I would get the pink one but I wonder how much Costco charges for cremation? I’d prefer cremation because lower cost & hassle & environmental impact. Welcome to Costco. I love you. Can’t think of any other place that sells law degrees AND livestock ♥️
They might just toss you in with the $1.50 hot dogs if you ask nicely.
One “president casket” with filling, please
I noticed that, too. Made me smile a little.
You know what, if I was one of the 10 people on earth who are in the market for that Piano, it’s a bit of a steal…!
That’s where I got my law degree
Welcome to Costco, I love you
I also got my degree from costco!
$179’999.99 is ridiculous. Is someone really going to look at that and say “Oh hey, it’s less than 180’000! What a steal!”?
Costco Syndrome: Go in for a pack of gym socks, come out with a 9-ft television and a trampoline.
Two trampolines, got to get the value pack.
Well when you buy those hot dogs on Klarna it lets you keep enough liquid to pay for that piano in cash.
