The Digital "price paid" reports thread has been around since October 2006. In that thread, members have posted information about their digital piano purchases. New/prospective buyers have found this information useful. To make future postings more consistent, I created a template (see below) for all new entries.

The moderator and I have agreed:
1. To use this new thread (the one you're now reading) for all new/future "prices paid" postings. Use this one for all new postings.
2. To urge members to use the provided template for their entries.
3. To maintain the old thread as-is. (Here's the OLD PRICES PAID THREAD)

Thanks for your support.
