From what I've seen, collectible radio advertising signs and clocks bring a lot more $$$ than the radios they advertised. $750 doesn't seem too far out of line from what I've seen more recent signs go for and it seems from the pic to be in decent shape. You might find something for a lower price tag, then again, you may never see that particular sign again. As Ron said...if you like it and its worth it to you then the price is right.
Cheers,
Bob
