Considering it was NCL, some people are telling me that even at $199, it was
overpriced.

Old travel agent saying... "The person with the lowest fare is the last
participant in the conversation."

FWIW - non-commissionable fares, taxes and the new fuel surcharge run about
$250 per person for a 7 night cruise. Some of those are included in the
fare, so I would take that $199 figure with a grain of salt. Not saying it
didn't happen... because with NCL... anything is possible.
