I was in your same position and ended up buying a used one online from Liberty Bellows: http://libertybellows.com/sales.html

They have a great detailed inventory, showcasing each accordion on Youtube.

I'm no expert on these things, but I guess you should pay attention to the sizing of the keys (I bought one with smaller sized keys but ended up wishing I got full sized keys, as I'm also familiar with piano, just doesn't feel the same obviously). There's also the consideration of how many "voicings" it can have, or the reed configuration (different sounds).

They came with some old raggedy leather straps that weren't that comfy, so I ended up getting these: http://www.amazon.com/HOHNER-ACC3-Hohner-Accordion-Straps/dp/B0036B8QEW/
