Hitting A Sour Note

She IS Karen! 🤭 Don'cha love how Karens are always telling other people how to "properly behave". 🙄🙄🙄🙄 45 YEARS? This sweet man has been in business for that long, despite a declining market...He's not aggressive *and* he let her keep $2K!! He could have a countersuit but he let *Karen*have her way correctly figuring his peace of mind is far more important.

“Like a kidnapping victim” The most Karen thing to link newspaper proving a date

[@Shaikhofilm]

The old man has a right to give back the deposit. That’s why he has a good recommendation and he’s been in business for 45 years. A business is a name, and a good rep is a good business. The plaintiff should be content with she has. The defendant could demand his $2000 back because the sale fell through, and charge her storage for the piano she doesn’t have a place to keep. She might end up being in desperation and end up selling the piano for dirt . Sometimes in these situations, things get put up in auction. See how much you’d get .

[@dontcare696]

Well he couldn’t charge storage because it’s on consignment

[@mikesteele05]

Listen, I know the plaintiff was shocked to learn that the piano didn’t actually sell, but once she learned it, she wanted to treat this case like she was standing at the customer service counter at Kohl’s and would get some sort of apology and freebie. Either take back your piano or keep waiting to see if it sells. Personally, I’d take my piano back. The defendant doesn’t seem like he’s fit to be running a consignment business right now if he can’t find paperwork, can’t remember conversations, and can’t remember to pick up a phone and say, “By the way, the piano sale fell through.”

[@kathywinn6869]

You made some good points. She might want to consider the cost of storing a grand piano in a climate controlled environment and count her lucky stars for the situation she finds herself in. As for the shop keeper, he might do well to hire someone to handle the business end of things. He clearly has some deficits related to those responsibilities. My guess is that in his time, his business was a well oiled machine.

[@ThePracticalDog]

@@kathywinn6869 wonderfully stated and right on point.

[@mohammedkhaliq1475]

Maybe your right, maybe your wrong. As the judge would say " thats all speculation and hearsay". Sometimes people do misplace things. But Regarding this case it really seems to me that the defendant knew that piano would be sitting around for quite some time. He got a deposit but it seems his experience told him that it doesn't mean its sold which turned out to be true. Overall the defendant seems like an honest and extremely fair individual. I'm sure she tried to find a different dealer to buy it but they lowballed her and she wanted top dollar and right away. The plaintiff seemed like she really wanted to get rid of the piano and dump it on someone else's lap. She was probably harassing him so he probably told her ill give it to u when I sell my property but he didn't want to acknowledge that in front of the judge so he's not on the hook for it. He could've told her ill give u 500 for it like other dealers she probably went to but he was very fair with her. As the judge always says, no good deed goes unpunished.

[@DisI3oss]

Yea good luck with that. No one buys classic pianos anymore. She should feel lucky she even got 2k for it. Grand pianos are for show and anyone learning would just buy electric keyboard.

[@stormy6454]

She simply wants the money. She got combative after she realized she could take it back. He shocked her when he still had it.

[@saramichele7366]

How the hell does this woman think she's entitled to the 2k?! It hasn't sold! If anything, she should be made to give it back!

[@RileyCullen1]

She’s ridiculous. It’s a piano. It’s not a phone, computer/laptop, or a tv. It’s not going to sell fast. Plus the price over the electronics listed is higher than each alone. And they are ‘small’. A piano isn’t. What does she honestly expect? And she should have gone to see how many he had to sell. That’s a great indication. I’d love to have a piano but my place is just tooooo small.

[@kittyb275]

She wanted her money. So would you. If someone sold your piano/ item you would want to know exactly what you are owed.

Sounds like she missed out on that deal since she just found out the storekeeper had the piano. The storekeeper would have been smart to pay to ship the piano back to the lady. That way he would get her out of his hair.

Did she just make fun of kidnapping victims....

[@falangomamango]

No, she wasn’t making fun of kidnapping victims, she was just stating a fact. I’m surprised that Judge Milian didn’t seem to understand the reference to kidnapping regarding taking a picture of the kidnappee with a current newspaper in order to prove date the photo was taken. That is no longer a relevant way to prove the date of a photo (due to the ability to photoshop) but I’m the same age as the judge and I know that kidnappers used to do that earlier in our lifetime.

Pianos require maintenance and care along with needing music knowledge to learn to play (and you’ll want to know you enjoy playing before investing) Like Karen - you’ve owned one around your kids and now that they’re adults none have room or want such a pricey item; that should tell you the market for pianos isn’t looking good

The plaintiff found a bad review to the BBB. Well the guy's been in business for 45 years, if he hasn't gotten a few bad reviews in that amount of time then he probably has never sold anything!
