Did I get a good deal on this '76 football lot?

About 2 weeks ago I bought a large lot of about 900-1000 1976 football. Pretty high grade stuff, although about 20-25% of it was O/C. I knew that going in and bought it anyway for $200.
I finally got through it today and have 517 of the 528 cards for the set, plus I already have a nice Payton in 8. I lack 10 cards, including Staubach, Fouts, Joe Greene, etc. Some stars like Bradshaw, etc. will need to be replaced, but overall the set is NM-MT with a handful of 9's and maybe a 10 or two in there. I have about 400-500 doubles, about 40% of which are O/C, the rest are pretty nice.
Did I get a good deal on these? I'm not nearly as knowledgeable about football as baseball, but it seemed like a quick way to build a high grade set around the Payton I already had.

PS. If anyone is interested in the doubles, they are available.
