    it is $788 plus delivery.

    • jabbawocky on 06/02/2017 - 10:55

      oops, will sort that out now thanks!!

    +$49 delivery for most cities.

    • jabbawocky on 06/02/2017 - 11:02

      hmmm… quite a bulky item, maybe that's why the $$

      • boozler on 06/02/2017 - 11:06

        not really as comes flat pack so or you need is an SUV or wagon, but if you don't have one then the $$ is reasonable.

        • Saturday on 06/02/2017 - 11:25

          Flat pack? Are you sure? Then how difficult to put it together?

        • Navgsc on 06/02/2017 - 11:47

          @Saturday: got one last year (same price), C&C, could fit the box in a 2015 Mazda 3 hatch. It's not a flat pack but small enough. The unit is pre-assembled and you only need to assemble the base (<10 min) and put the unit on top and fix it.

        • Saturday on 06/02/2017 - 11:50

          @Navgsc: Thanks Navgsc. This time it seems no C&C option. I will be happy to pay for the delivery and knowing it is easy to assemble is assuring ;p

          @Saturday:

          Yeah it's pretty easy to assemble if you have two people.

          Highly recommend the casios, they're brilliant for the price!

  • quarrymaster on 06/02/2017 - 11:05

    It's almost to the day JB had this offer last year. I ended up getting the AP260 as some suggested at the time.

    A lot of fun for tinkerers.

  • cmkyan11 on 06/02/2017 - 11:20

    Does anyone know what is the difference between ap260 and ap250?

    • bamzero on 06/02/2017 - 12:17

      I was trying to find out the same thing last week. Seems like the 260 is a fairly minor update.
      The only differences I noticed were a slight change to the tones (dropped one bass tone, added another elec piano) and the addition of concert play orchestra recordings. Guessing there must be some other behind the scenes improvements, but nothing that warrants the extra $ on a 260.

      Not sure why JB's has so many of these old models though. The CDP-120 they sell was discontinued a while ago also.

      • cmkyan11 on 06/02/2017 - 15:19

        Thank you. That's what I'm thinking about $300 savings if I buy the ap250 instead is ap260

  • King Steuart on 06/02/2017 - 12:19

    Does it come with the stand and stool or is the image inaccurate? Stand is $130 and stool is like $80

    Just looked closer and its actually all one piece so I guess the stand is included.. nice price for an 88 key casio

    • bamzero on 06/02/2017 - 12:21

      Yep, stand and stool are included.

  • camshandez on 06/02/2017 - 13:06

    Do their emails possibly take some time to distribute? I'm registered for instant deals and have not received this one…

  • congo on 06/02/2017 - 14:07

    What's the benefit and negative of digital keyboard over traditional ones?

    • bamzero on 06/02/2017 - 14:38
      +1

      Well the most obvious is no tuning required.
      Usually more portable, and being digital you're not limited to a single piano tone. You also open up the world of MIDI.

      The distinction should be made that this is a digital piano, not a keyboard. The keys are weighted to feel like an acoustic piano.

    • step_andy on 06/02/2017 - 14:39

      No need to tune?

      • jabbawocky on 06/02/2017 - 14:42

        Unlike traditional pianos where you have physical strings that will require re-tuning over time.

  • shakoo on 06/02/2017 - 14:40

    anyone know how this compares to the Yamaha DGX-530 that Costco is selling for $649?

    • bamzero on 06/02/2017 - 14:46

      Quick look says to me would be better to compare that against the Casio CDP-230.

      • shakoo on 06/02/2017 - 15:14

        thanks bamzero

    • MissKitty on 06/02/2017 - 15:02

      Just had a quick look: the DGX-530 doesn't even have graded hammer action. It also only has 32-notes of polyphony which is very low (compared with 128 on the Casio). Seems like more of a keyboard too me. The Casio is a proper faux-piano. Less bells and whistles. Can't comment on the sound. Different league IMHO.

      • shakoo on 06/02/2017 - 15:14

        Thanks MissKitty :-)

  • barginfan on 06/02/2017 - 16:26

    A couple of users reported a thud of each note played on Amazon and Costco, any comments on that?

    • HeXa on 06/02/2017 - 16:59
      +1

      they are weighted keys - person who commented probably expected a light plastic electronic keyboard feeling

      don't expect the keys to be quiet just because the volume is turned down - the "hammer" action in keys still need to move

  • HeXa on 06/02/2017 - 16:55

    wonder where they got new old stock of these… model must be 4-5 years old now

    bought the replacement AP260BK model two years ago for $1000

    EDIT: fl8- add this for a 5% cashback -> http://www.soundtechnology.com.au/backtoschool

    • cmkyan11 on 06/02/2017 - 17:15

      Sweet! Thanks mate

      • HeXa on 06/02/2017 - 17:19

        no worries - AP250 is a nice DP but still worthwhile to hit up your local music places for a good deal on a AP260 if your budget allows (ignore their $1500 RRP)

        • cmkyan11 on 06/02/2017 - 17:37

          Any chance the store you bought from was from Perth? Because the cheapest I got around this area was $1199

        • HeXa on 06/02/2017 - 18:33

          @cmkyan11: nah - eastern coast

          in that case - try a 10% off eBay coupon (CAU10) on something like http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Casio-AP-260-88-Key-Digital-Piano… to get it delivered for $1079

          though I can understand buying local would be more convenient - get haggling :D

        • cmkyan11 on 06/02/2017 - 18:46

          @HeXa: thanks :)

        • barginfan on 06/02/2017 - 20:56

          @HeXa: thanks for helpping out above (re thud)!
          I made an offer for a korg to this store, they gave me a counter offer of the orginal price, a $0 discount.

          Now i like the 250 better, even the speakers are a bit on the small side.

    • jabbawocky on 06/02/2017 - 17:29

      Added, thanks much HeXa!
