I'll throw out the opening pitch here, but understand that everyone is going to disagree.
A. A matching magazine probably bumps the price up by $400-$600. 2 matching mags, $800-$1000.
B. Refinished is a killer and in many cases puts it into a shooter category, UNLESS the gun is otherwise rare. Minimum $400 hit.
c. Ditto the import mark. Some are hideous while others are pretty sneaky, so again again several hundred dollars on a marked gun. The British mark thing is another question entirely. some feel it just shows a "history" while others see all those stamps less generously. Also depends on the regional marketplace.
D. The matching gun with a mismatched mag. is considerably more desirable than one with some mismatched internals. Don't ask me why, that's just how it seems to be.
Again these are my assessments. I'm not an advanced collector like these other guys, I just watch the market and that is what I'm basing my responses on.
