it has a decent 2 year warranty on the bulb and since i won't be turning it on and off i figure it's a good value.
$200 with a 2yr warranty is fine, and if you had gift cards, then it was probably worth it.

i'd like to point out the comments about charging $500 for a $100 light are probably right. You charge what hte market will bear.
