Not meaning to be a smart ***, but what something is worth, vs what it costs are two different things. I seem to recall seeing these sell on e-bay, perhaps a search for "Completed Items" will offer some insight for you? 450-500

I have seen them sell for $800 $900 range. I have to say I love mine. They seem to be very pricey now.

This one just sold yesterday for $362 on eBay -- which was a little cheaper than I've seen it in the past. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=8009648971

Nah, things are worth whatever people are willing to pay for them.

The Saratogas are about 2 lbs LIGHTER than the stock roof.

I got mine for $450, and shortly after I got it, I had someone offer me $1000 for it. I like it so much that I refused the offer.
