    If it's tall, with a full-blow action, it's not a spinet.  Even if it's 
console size, but has a drop action, it's a "drop-action  console."  If the 
rear ends of the keys (capstans) extend under the wippens, then it's a 
console.?

?  Yes, a dealer might ask $2K, but through the newspaper, between private 
parties, it might be hard to get more than $1200 - $1500 unless the finish 
is really like new.  (Looks always seem to matter more than the quality of 
the instrument)?

I'm looking for a reality check on the retail value of a 1983 Baldwin 
spinet - midwest USA prices.?
?

It is a tall one (for a spinet) with the Baldwin full-blow action. Case is 
good to very good, and mechanically the piano is in very good condition - I 
would estimate that it has average to light wear for a piano its age. The 
regulation is good.?
?

I'm guessing that a dealer would ask about $2k for such a beast. Yes??
?

Thanks.?
