Hi Alan, 1. I have no idea what it would sell for in Joplin, perhaps $12,000.00 to $15,000.00? Maybe more? 2. There are several dealers to contact. Steinway Piano Gallery in Springfield, MO www.steinwaymissouri.com (417) 890-5024 Schmitt Music in Kansas City (Steinway Dealer) http://www.schmittmusic.com (913) 663-4756 ABC Music in Tulsa (Steinway Dealer) (918) 663-3560 The Piano Man Music Center in Kansas City (913) 432-8885 Not sure of what the consignment fee would be, maybe 20% to 40% of the selling price.
