$1000 holsters?

Hi johnnv,

Excellent++ P.08 holsters sold for $800 - $850 at the Rock Island Auction.

Several years ago a collector had some holsters on eBay that appeared to be flat brand new. I still have the pictures and they were beautiful.

I knew him and called to find out what the deal was because the bidding was at $650 on some and hadn't met reserve. He said reserve on most was $1000 and if they didn't sell on eBay he would take them to a well known show. He said the last time he took similar holsters to the same show he sold all he had in less than 3 hours. I don't believe any sold on eBay so I assume he did what he said. I haven't had an occasion to speak to him since.

Regards, Leon
