Pricing and The Gun Blue Book

John Sabato · 02-16-2006, 05:49 PM

Lugerdoc, Simpson, Shattuck, CheckpointCharlies, just to name a few dealers who specialize... know what you want... then price it and look for one in that order...

My advice is to place your wants in the "wanted" forum and see what kind of response you get. Members are always upgrading their collections and might have a lesser quality Luger that they might want to sell once they get a nicer one... many a deal happens on this forum that benefits all concerned.

But Caveat Emptor... know what you want... get plenty of photos,and be sure of the return policy before you buy... Anyone reputable in selling with nothing to hide should have no problem providing good quality photos and allowing you to post them here on the forum to get knowledgeable opinions on value... and if it turns out it is too rich for your pocketbook, then someone else here gets a chance after you turn it down. Good Luck.
