So; To the bottom line - did you pay too much or not? All things considered, and with the status of the grips still undecided, I think you may have stumbled into a break-even deal. With a DWM extractor and some period wood grips, you could probably get $550 for it, and you can make $100 on the extractor. If the grips turn out to be 'black widow', then you can put another $100 in your pocket which would make it definitely a 'plus' deal.
