It may be a good reproduction, but 870 EUROs seems to be very high for a price...

It is a pretty case and appears to be of good quality. But over $1100 US seems a bit high for a reproduction that really isn't a true copy of an original. The interior isn't bad, but the leather exterior is wrong (should be black with embossed border lines) and the hardware pieces are modern approximations of the originals. Admittedly, it takes a lot of work to make one of these, but something closer to $5-600 seems more appropriate.
