Whereabouts are you?
Please don't buy blind - ideally look for a local (or local ish) seller of used pianos and talk to them, visit them, have a play on a few. There are a few sellers on eBay whose business is refurbishing and selling uprights - they will take care of delivery, stringing, tuning and so on.
Talk to a person if at all possible. Or buy digital.
Dont dismiss the modern(ish) smaller framed pianos. My brother has one of these and it plays really well:
