The gun looks good on picture. If this is your first Luger, $1200 and $1500's difference is not really that big. Collector's advice is good, but that's based on their context -- they already have an established collection of this, of course they are very picky, looking for specific variation at specific price,,, especially for common variation in less than mint condition (common variation means they already have it, less than mint condition means they don't need to upgrade to this sample),,,, they can still buy it for trading, in that context, the cost must be very restrictively controlled.
For first time buyer, context is totally different. Of course, if it can come lower, that's better. Still focus on the gun being correct or not, that's more important than $200.
