LIVONIA, Mich. (WJBK) -
A baby grand piano, roll top desk, sofas and dining room tables -- these aren't things you can put in your pocket and walk out with, but they're all gone.
It was once a store filled with fancy furnishings that people left on consignment. That means the shop sells your goods and you split the money. However, the people that were running the Consignment and Outlet Store in Livonia split and now the new owner says all the good stuff is gone.
Where's the missing piano? We need your help to find it.
