Wes,

Dwight's answer is close to what I would say. I don't see modern Lugers very often. I paid $500 for my shooter which someone else had already nicely reblued. I have no interest in having even this gun refinished (again). My first purchase at $500 was still not cheap in my opinion--but it let me find out what I really thought about Lugers. I find that I like them, but if I found that I didn't, the first one would probably be traded for something else.

Maybe your 1970s AE would have been just as appealing to me as Thor's gun, I don't know.
Anyway, some gun purchases are not totally logical. I already had my 1936 shooter when I bought Thor's product. Did I need another? Hardly? Well it's fun looking, buying, shooting, etc. (Maybe even selling--I don't do that often enough).
