Conn 710 xxx Serial number, What year?

Hi, hope you can help me on this. I have bought a Conn 24M HF sax for my little son. It looks almost new, playes realy nice, is a pretty heavy well manufactured sax (student) and i think I bought it for a very good price (280 $). Now my question is, can anybody tell me, what year it has been manufactured? The serial number is 710 xxx. On the Conn page it says, take the first 2 numbers and add 50=121?!?!? So what year is it now. The seller said it might be 1 or 2 years old, but I´m just curious. I have already wrote to Conn, but I think they have a real bad customer service. After 2 weeks still no answer :((. So maybe anyone of you can help me on this one.
