Default Refinish a good thing? A rare K date

I think we all pretty much feel the same way about refinsihed Lugers; kind of a turn off. However in some cases it might be of some benefit.
Such is the case here. There is no way I could ever afford to buy a $7000.00-$9000.00 Luger. However with that said, a somewhat rare K date did come along that I thought fit my budget and at the same time was a good representative piece. This K date has a very low serial number (364) and is properly marked throughout the pistol. The mag, although a legit K date mag, does not match, but every part is marked with a script S and last digits of the serial number. Even though it has been reblued, I am proud to own this rare K date. Are all shooters created equal; I think not.
