I think it is simply a mistake to buy expensive unless you really know what you are looking at (no offense meant). As an example, If I am offered a Navy or a Krieghoff, I simply would not know it enough to pay $4k - 8K and those are going prices for them.
If the price seems high, it is either 2 mag matching and very nice 98%+ or simply too high. The better the condition, the higher the price, that is why crummy guns are restored and sold as high blued originals by shysters.
