Hello LugerForum

As you can see I live in the UK and as you may well know "they" - HMG -make it as difficult as possible to own pistols over here (since Dunblane I had to hand-in my Model 29 Dirty Harry and Colt Woodsman)).
But this has not stopped me from building up an ecletic (so I am told) "Heritage Pistol Collection" including quantity one P '08 DMW 1917, all matching... including the wooden mag grip.
I currently have the opportunity of a near identical P '08, circa 1915, all atching but the mag plus a bit more blue and holster; owned by the same wealthly Bristol family that my Fosbery came from - but this dealer wants twice the price for the 1915 than I paid for the 1917 about three years ago.

What should I pay for a 1915? Should I bite his arm off?
What's a 1915 worth in your part of the world?
