Join the club. Several of us here think the ride of a 70's PX-10 is superior to just about anything. Of course some others think we're nuts.

I paid $375.00 in July of 1973 for my RRA at 'The Inside Edge' in Schenectady, NY. I really wanted a Raleigh Professional (the Campagnolo components looked so nice!!) but the price tag on it was $565.00.

As a "subjective data point": I also had a PX-10 (bought new in May 1971) concurrently with the RRA. I thought the ride comfort was quite superior on the PX-10, and usually took this bike for any 50+ mile rides.
