I think you got taken - - I feel bad for you - - I'll give you $100 for it, to help get you out of the hole ;-)

Here in N.E. Florida the clean, used 742's are selling for $200-250. Since your's is a Bi-Centennial commemorative eddition I'm sure you got a great deal. Just remember that with commemoratives condition is everything, if the condition comes off 99%-100% then the value will plummet.
