Sounds like a fair price. It would depend if the core is good.

Here is an old post from 2010 on a Ranco I purchased with no core exchange required

I do not believe anyone has new valves for sale, and almost every other vendor requires a rebuild able core.

here are some pics
This may interest you if your valve is not rebuild able or missing

Good Luck
