I dont know threadfins are probably worth that much but I dont think a normal lookdown. At my store I work at we buy em for 125 but give it a shot maybe the owners an idiot.

I catch them all the time here in NY. There just baby lookdown's and not threadfin's. You would be lucky to get $10 from a wholesaler or maby $20 in store credit at the lfs. Let me know if these are what you have.
