I have been buying and selling at gun shows over the last 3-4 months, and what I have seen there and on line (gunbroker / ebay) is a luger like this, I'd offer $400 for it, $500 with the holster, clean it up and hope to get $550; the holster looks a bit rough too, I sold one like it for $125.

When I've had holsters at shows and on ebay, I have been lucky to get $225 for a nice one; I think my pictures are too nice and my description too accurate... In other words, I don't make it sound rare and "mint" as some folks say.
