You seldom see shooter lugers for under $600, it does happen and i have bought some, but usually that is the price. Everything depends on if just mismatched or matched and heavily buffed, mismatched and heavily buff, if in 9mm or 7.65mm, etc

That's pretty much what I have seen too. Even the guys who are trying to sell the nasty reblues still ask $600-700 and won't budge, but it seems like they usually end up keeping them as well. Saw a rounded over DWM with a deep black caustic reblue at a show a while back, the guy was trying to tell me that DWM put that on as a high end option. He said it was a bargain at $1,400, but for some reason I have seen him bringing it back to one show after another. The absolutely cheapest Luger I have seen lately was a high polish, chrome plated DWM for $500, but everything was so heavily buffed that it's probably not even worth parting out. It could make a fun shooter at that price though.
