Is this right?

I was at the Cabela's store in Owatonna, Minnesota a couple weeks ago and they had a luger similar to the one described here. They were advertising it as an American Eagle Luger. Condition was 95% overall. Asking price was $2375 I think. It was marked with the "A.F.Stoeger Inc New York", but not the "Original Luger...". I don't remember seeing "AE" on the chamber. It appeared to be all matching including the wood bottomed mag. I don't remember the serial number offhand. Price seems a bit steep, compared to the one from AA, which I would say from the picture is in comparable shape to the one I saw. I may be going there this weekend on my way to Iowa to pheasant hunt. Is it worth my time to stop and haggle with them? What else should I look for on the gun? Why would they advertise it as an American Eagle? Any comments would be appreciated. Roscoe
