I sold a 1954 in 1993 for $2500 + tax, and that one needed to be
refinished.  It was a great playing and sounding piano.

For one in *good* condition $1600 is a fabulous price regardless of one's
opinion.  What little buying and selling experience I have acquired over
the years, I could easily resell it for a profit at that price, but only
after I enjoyed it for awhile first.  :-)
