Default RC BYF41 Question

Hey guys. I don't post here very often but I know you can help me. I didn't see anywhere else to post this and it's not an East German rework so I figured I should put it here. Anywho, I'm looking at a Russian Capture BYF41. It's all matching (as in even the toggle axle, extractor and striker) except for the sideplate which was force matched. None of the markings were peened and no new ones were added. It still has the original barrel too (some frosting but solid) with a faint import stamp on the bottom. The entire pistol is the typical eastern european dip reblue which changed the ejector and some other bits a slight plum. The magazine is a bakelite bottom (looks like a real bottom and not a repro to me) FXO37 and, while I'm sure the pistol probably had the ribbed Russian grips when it originally came into the country, it now has resin reproductions of the original bakelite type. I've seen Russian captures before that were all matching except for the side plate that were reblued and I'm certain that's what this one is. The import stamp is in the white so I know it hasn't been refinished here. Dude wants $1000 for it. I think that's a fair price but you all would know far more than I do. I like my East German lugers but have been out of the loop for a while. I'm sure this would be a good shooter since it's matching. Yea or nay at 1K? Thanks!
