Thanks guys, I appreciate the support, and advise.

At this point, I'd rather not name the music store. I did notifiy Yamaha of all the repair details, including the store name.


It turns out the music store is an official Yamaha dealer, but not an official Yamaha repair center.

I've been in contact with Yamaha L.A. and they helped me get an answer from the Music Store, although I'm not satisfied with that answer. Again, where did they get the $800 price from? Why did it take nearly 3 months? If Yamaha has no knowledge of the keyboard being sent to them...where WAS it sent?

The whole situation stinks. 3 months without the keyboard, and then an $800 estimate. What?


Yamaha did offer to repair the keyboard, and is sending me a Return Authorization if I want to persue it. Yamaha also said the repair should be less than the $800 quoted by the Music store. As stated above, worse case would be $400 for a new motherboard. But, and a biggy, I would have to pay shipping, both ways, from Pennsylvania to California. Now the worse case is up to $500.


And No, I still did not get the keyboard back from the Music Store, and I didn't call them today, as I was way to upset to deal with them.

I need a break from this.
