Thank you for your comments. I'm like a jojo, now I'm leaning towards the Privia series, since the P155 is a child of it's time as some have mentioned. That would cut my cost down 300 Euros and give me a more modern piano with more options.

TheodorN.... I hope you didn't think I was rude not answering. I'll post on here. Then go to work.
I also hope you understand that I thought this discussion needed waking up. That's what I tried to do. It appears I was successful.

Personally....If I were you. This should be a good upgrade. Don't worry so much about a deal, or saving. Just look for fair price. Because the good ones won't be put on sale. They don't need to.
In fact. Just order an ES7 and thank us all later. smile

On the Privia's... I might be looking at a PX-5. ???? Pretty handy, portable, quality keyboard. But as you can see, I'm a little in love with Kawai. smile

EDIT I almost forgot! .... EDIT: Oh...Hello James?! About that Godzilla Metronome... Can the R&D boys make sure it won't chase my cats? My robotic vacuum cleaner is already all they can handle.

Go VST with your P85? then you have Yamaha feel but better sounds for about 200Euros.

No rnaple, I didn´t think you were rude. I understand that people have to work and can't sit all day reading Piano World (sometimes I feel I do too much of it myself, even though I'm not working.) I sometimes leave my own discussion threads, even when there are lively discussions going on, simply because I have nothing more to say. The intention is not being rude.

The ES7 gets so much praise that I might take your advice. I can order it at emusic.se it seems. The PX-5S is not yet available here (haven't seen it, neither on- nor offline.) Just watched Piano Man Chuck's video on the difference between it and PX-850, and these two don't seem to differ too much.

Regarding the VAT in Sweden, mentioned by justpin, it's even higher in my home country (Iceland) 25,5%. Think we have the world's highest VAT.

I sold my P85, so I can't get a VST with it.

Edit: I second getting Kawaii James's opinion, that is almost a necessity in discussions where Kawaiis are mentioned!
