** freezer-on-top Amana refrigerator of indeterminate age **
I'm afraid that is not enough information to identify the appliance in question. What is needed is its exact model number and in the case of it being an Amana, its manufacturing (MFG) number as well.
You can find tips for locating the model and serial number identification tag on your appliances at the following link:

** water has been dripping from the "ceiling" of the refrigerator compartment. **
It may have a plugged defrost water drain.
** Is this a big problem? **
A plugged defrost water drain wouldn't normally be considered "major" but will depend on what actually turns out to be causing it.
** Should I pay a repair man $80 just to come look at it? **
That will be up to you.
** or is this something that might be fixed by clearing (probably un-freezing) the defrost drain? **
That is one possibility for the cause, yes. Has anyone looked at it to try to determine if a drain blockage is the cause and if so, is it only blocked with ice?
