I found my Saginaw in a small gun store about 35 years ago. I think I paid ~$200 or so. I suspect it probably came from the CMP back in the '60's.
I had a couple of others I bought in the early '90's when a lot of them were re-imported but they were pretty shot out. I sold those, wish I'd kept them looking at prices now.
Here's an old photo of my Saginaw with my Springfield. They're both '43.
