In the Midwest I see plenty of crappy shooter grade P.08's for sale at ridiculous prices. When I tried to sell a decent (blue wear only)1917 DWM mismatch for the whopping price of $350 no one would buy it, not even on Auction Arms! Out of desperation to sell it, I then broke it down into the sum of it's parts and got $400 plus got to keep the complete toggle! When you think about it though a car is worth more for it's parts than together, so why not guns? The way I figure it if it was a parts gun to begin with what does it hurt.

My .02 worth.
