The total price paid reflects the trade-in discount, the new matching bench, delivery, plus tax. And, I was completely satisfied with the purchase.
Extra note:
The CLP-480R and CLP-990M are currently my favorite digitals with the overall edge going to the older CLP-990M. Thought you might find it interesting that I paid $3,663.64 for the CLP-990M in which all of the costs were as follows:
1) Seller's price = $2,000
2) Shipping = $1,275
3) Repair of pedals = $196.31
4) Sustain pedal adjustment = $115.00
5) Pedal support bolt = $28.47
6) AC power cord = $48.86
Grand total = $3,663.64
So, even though the piano was $2K it cost me an extra $1,663.64 to get the piano delivered and back into fully functioning status along with my own two minor repairs (at no cost) of supergluing the two loose wood veneer strips at the front ends of the keyboard, on both sides. The last item was only something affecting the cosmetic appearance although everything is back to the way it should be - pedals and all.
Note as to how I spent nearly as much on the delivery and repairs as I did for the piano, itself.
The CLP-990M will not be traded-in, or, sold.

Richard, so to clarify, you paid $4400 and gave the dealer your CA95?

Please do read the details above regarding my other CLP-990M, which I now hold in high esteem due to all of the extra money I put into restoring it. I am going to add these additional pricing details to my CLP-990M listing.

Wow! You have lots of money to spend.
But couldn't you get the CLP480 for around $5000 with NO trade-in?
Also, a new CA95 might sell for a tad under $4000. Although yours was used, it wasn't very old, and it still should have brought a tidy sum at trade-in.

I bought Pianoteq and sold my KorgSP250 with the intention of buying a VPC1.
The long delivery delay with the VPC1 convinced me to buy a piano with internal sound !

This piano is still going strong and gives what I consider to be a very realistic grand piano sound when recording and gigging. Great buy for the money.

I am over the top happy with this piano. I've owned my fair share of Rolands, Yamahas and even Casios, and NOTHING compares to the GF action...what a real treat! The on-board piano sounds are simply wonderful and I'm finding, at least for now, that I'm using them more than Pianoteq! In my opinion this piano is simply the best non-grand action AP substitute available.
