Any Falcon which has been opened for any reason can hardly be considered new, regardless of how much you used it. This is just a small example of the ridiculous price gouging that goes on in the Atari community.
Just for the record, I got my Falcon for the grand total price of two grey STE/TT/Falcon "Jag pads", which is much less than $100 (Clint, you rock!). Coincidentally, mine also has Bell + Howell stickers and serial numbers on it. Funny that they would be willing to pay me $1,200 to buy back something which they once owned.
Go ahead and "sell" it for $700, though. Funny that you would offer us this "steal", yet Bell + Howell should be offering you much more? Do I smell bullshit here?

P.S. Europeans have the right to complain about your asking price, as they can generally get better equipped Falcons for a fraction of the price you're asking. Maybe I should move to Europe...
