Pick a model and see the lowest current prices on eBay, where boards come up constantly as players upgrade action. Prices are pulled live, so what you see is what sellers are actually asking this minute.
Live from eBayThe action is the instrument. Everything else is software. Weighted hammer action feels like a piano, semi-weighted does not, and graded action is heavier at the bass end the way a real one is. Two boards at the same price can be entirely different instruments, so read what the action is rather than what the sounds are, because you can add sounds and you cannot add feel.
Play every key, and listen rather than look. Actions wear, and the first sign is noise: a thump or a click as a key returns, long before anything stops sounding. Ask for a video running the full length of the keyboard slowly. A single dead key is a repair that often costs more than the instrument is worth secondhand.
Find out whether it has speakers. A stage instrument deliberately has none, because it is built to go through a PA. If it is for a living room and you do not already own amplification, that is a real cost on top, and it is the most common surprise when buying a professional board cheaply.
The pedal and the power supply go missing. Many use a proprietary power brick that costs real money to replace, and the pedal that ships in the box is often the small plastic switch rather than a continuous one that supports half-damper. Ask which you are getting.
Shipping is the reason some are cheap. An 88-key board is long, heavy and easy to damage, so many sell for collection only and the good prices are local. Read the freight before deciding anything is a bargain.
Value. The professional stage boards hold their money for years because working players buy them to work, and the action outlives the fashion in sounds. Consumer slabs drop hard in the first two years and then flatten, which is exactly where buying secondhand pays best, and it is what the prices above show.

The action, then the action again. Weighted hammer action feels like a piano and semi-weighted does not, and no amount of good sounds fixes the wrong feel. Read what the action is before you read anything else.
Ask for a video running slowly up the whole keyboard. Listen for a thump or click as keys return rather than watching for silence: worn actions get noisy well before they fail, and a single dead key is often a repair worth more than the instrument.
Because they are stage instruments, built to go through a PA. If it is for a room and you do not already own amplification, add that to the price. It is the most common surprise when a professional board looks cheap.
The professional stage boards, for years, because working players buy them to work. Consumer slabs fall hard for two years and then flatten, which is the argument for buying those secondhand rather than new.
