Hi Folks,


Once more - donâ??t confuse â??collectableâ? with â??collector value.â? Anything someone collects is â??collectable.â? Collector value, OTOH, is determined by the market - and mismatched Lugers simply donâ??t have much in the way of collector value.


Art, I donâ??t doubt or dispute all your Lugers, regardless of condition and whether matching, are collectable. But if you should ever decide to sell one of the mismatched Lugers from your collection donâ??t be disappointed if all you realize from the sale is shooter value. Thatâ??s just the reality of the marketplace in Lugers. Unless, of course, you can find someone who doesnâ??t know the Luger market


Best regards,


Kyrie
