Matching stand for Yamaha P115, P45, and P71 digital piano modelsAttaches securely to instrument
For sure, I paid roughly $600 just for my P-105. I must admit though the full stand will make your life so much better. The piano will stay stable and not move around. Definitely worth the price. I really like that sustain pedal as well. I hate the simple square one I have, so that's another plus of this bundle. The last thing would be just replacing that chair, I've never used a scissor style chair, but it can't be any more stable than a scissor stand. I'd recommend replacing that if you start really getting into piano.
I personally picked up a Yamaha P95 as a beginner and am fairly happy with it. As a newbie, I can't compare the action of the keys, but they feel similar to a real piano. The extra features are nice, but are never really used (metronome is probably the only thing). I did buy a midi controller so I could use software on my computer for practicing, sounds, and recording. The price you are quoted seems kind of high to me, unless you are getting the stand too. I got mine brand new for 399$ (without the stand).
Is this more of something that you are looking for?

Because they come straight from the factory packaged as one unit.
I would take some measurements and see if you can get away with a similar wood stand from Yamaha.
Stand:
Depends on whether you want to get the official stand or a generic X stand. If you were getting the DXG 660, it appears to come with a stand I think? The official stand for the P-115 will set you back about $100.
Whilst a X style stand probably costs around $25.
Stool:
Cheaper stools can be had for around $25. If you wanted something fancy like you would get with an acoustic, then probably around $60 upwards?
Pedal unit
Note that you will probably want to buy a decent sustain pedal (the one that came with my P105 was terrible). Again you can get a generic one for around $20. The official pedal unit for the P115 will set you back $75.
