My grandpa got a pool table in his basement in a very similar stair condition. To this day, I have no idea how beyond the fact that he had a come along tied to a 4x4 across the basement door. We just left it down there when we sold the house.
This actually happens. Had a relative that bought one of a row of townhouses being built back in the 60s. The company building the houses thought it would be a sweet incentive to include a piano with each one, so now everyones house in that row has a busted old stand up piano in the basement that’s impossible to remove without some sort of demolition.
WOW. When the app popped up your comment, I saw the first sentence and I tried to guess which of my comments it was a response to. Then I went like “no way”.
No matter how hard you try to come up with some surrealist bullshit, chances are someone had thought of the same and went like “this is a great idea”.

I still have no idea how people get grand pianos into their houses.
First they buy and place the piano, THEN they build the house.

We have that problem with our late parents house. The grand piano was placed into a second-floor room by removing the window casing and using a crane.
We are hoping that the piano will sell with the house.
the legs come off a grand, they turn it 90d and wheel it on a cart. seen this done, required tall doors tho.
Hmmm interesting. Still sounds very difficult.
it’s quite the workout even with a bunch of big guys and the right equipment.
