Based on the set at the time, I'm going to guess this was taped around May 1985 with the seats switching from blue to red along with the CBS Eye curtains changing as well, with the Contestants' Row borders still remaining pink.

Some other changes/observations I have noticed:
-The perfect bid by this point in the run has increased to $500
-There is still no "Ten Thousand" graphic in Grand Game's intro, this was added likely after the summer taping break
-Very unusual to not have a model (which would have been Dian at the time) run the elevator operator in the Department Store showcase, I have to wonder if this was normal at the time or if it just applied to the Kennedy version, or some specific episodes.
