Thats a good deal, you are lucky. Far better than when I was offered by the jack sellers a Repro for $900
I have now have one of C2jacks Type 1 and am happy with it.

For a company that buys from a supplier and sells to the public 35% is not that much of a mark up. Depending on the parts and price points some mark up at least 100%.

In 2010 LIC was selling their Type I jack for $160.00. So expect the price to be higher than that.

I do remember that.
If a nice original is now in the $600 range I would imagine a good reproduction will be around $300-$350.
Any more than that and most will just pay up for a real one.
