Hi I have an upright Burger & Jacobi piano which is very old but in good working condition.
I would like to establish the value of this piano from an expert, please.

Hi Shaney,
The best, and cheapest way for you to get an accurate assessment of the value of your piano is to contact your piano technician and have him give a value based on examination of the piano. It’s impossible to do without seeing the instrument.
