Interested in buying first Luger

To be original, all matching is just one side of the coin. Since 1936 Mauser is not a rare gun, just being original and matching but not in great shape (the one on Dell Laptop in another thread?) can not demand premium. At least cannot today. Future, who knows. I would assume it should be a few hundred. The risk is not big, but that one does not have military stamps on the right of receiver, you may want to check the stamps, besides numbers. If stamps were filed off, that will be a big minus, even if it's all matching.

[Edit] If it's not part of a charity program, I have to say no one can sell a Luger by offering a single dark picture. Asking the seller to offer more pictures.
