Luger values

One area of the Blue Book where I believe prices are low is in regards to condition. A code 42 Luger in 70 percent condition is listed as being worth $450 and a 60 percent condition is valued at $400. These are about the prices the current imports are selling for, and an original Luger in 60-70 percent condition is certainly more desirable than a recent import. But having said that,the Blue Book is an excellent resource and I buy it every couple of years. Also,I think some collectors get too picky about condition. Would anyone expect a pistol carried in combat to be in 99 percent condition?
