I think you can see the consensus of opinion here...
I would have two doubts -
(1) Magazine - The base doesn't look too good, whether fake or not. I would not count on this 'matching magazine' as adding any value to this Luger (and might possibly cost more to regain functionality).
(2) Is this a real buddy or just a casual acquaintance? Maybe someone you know from the local gun club or corner bar?
If it is a real friend, a sale like this can impact the relationship for years...On either side...There are those who think any Luger is worth thousands...And that they are all 'rare'...And therefore worth whatever high value the seller can find on GB or GA...
The bottom line is that this is a common Luger with most likely a troublesome magazine; well worn, without accessories, and could use some obvious repairs (and possibly some not so obvious).
I would vote for the $750 estimates. If your friend insists it is worth more, wish him luck.
