Um, pianos are given away all the time on our freecycle list. Cars have also been given away. My best friend was going to give on away on freecycle, but ran out of time and just had it hauled away. We _got_ a piano off of freecycle. People give away computers on our freecycle list all the time. I saw a 17" CRT monitor recently. You'd really be amazed.
