    hi there The only way to appraise the value of a piano is for a technician to visually check out the instrument and ascertain the condition of the following; 1. belly (soundboard, ribs, bridges, pinblock) 2. strings 3. action 4. damper action 5. keyboard 6. pedal hardware 7. lyre 8. case/cabinet/finish. Once the above is known, a value can be determined. You can get a referral for a technician from the Piano Technicians Guild (www.ptg.org). The price range can vary from $0 to $1500 depending on the above. Assuming a thirty-five year old piano is in good condition, a tuning in preparation for a sale is a must. The sound quality is compromised when there is a lack of resonance due to inharmonicity. It would be like wearing a Brooks Brothers tuxedo to a wedding that's wrinkled. As for where to sell the instrument, Craigs List is one option. Other possibilities include posting fliers at church/temple/school/laundromat bulletin boards, having fliers posted at music schools and college music department boards, placing an ad at your local newspaper classifieds section, etc. I hope this is somewhat helpful
