Gray market value of SPG+MR is aprox $150 more than the 200K UR.
On a 3k package that's considered  "pretty fair" imho. Especially since the market fluctuates.

1.75/1.45-1.4 is under $50 difference.

Realistically if you hold on to them for the next 6 months you may get that price eventually, maybe, but in my experience you're more likely to get 1.75-1.80

There was a transfer bonus that just ended, that's why the price was so much higher before.

Yeah, I'm looking to sell, but couldn't get a decent offer last week. What did they offer?
