FWIW, I picked up the IMI 30 round M855 in the brown kraft boxes for $11 at the last show.  It was a little high but it's been years since I've seen them.  I got the only 5 boxes that were there.

If you like the manufacturer (and the consensus seems to be that IMI is GOOD), then go by the per-round cost.  Your purchase was a little over 23¢ a round, and that's pretty good for today's market.  A year ago, you would have overpaid at this price.

I'd still say that's fair.

FWIW, we're ALL getting ripped these days.
