Maybe he was a russian tycoon :-)
I've never been to an auction.
In any case to me Lugers are items that first of all "must be loved" before you buy them. When I fall in love for a new Luger I seem to transform myself in some sort of "tormented soul" and the initial "infatuation" is generally followed by:
b) hundred of doubts about the item/price asked for it
c) wondering if it is a good idea to get it for the collection
So generally it takes a pretty long time before I decide to buy it.
Probably just I'm not made for auctions.
