1940/42 Luger on Gunbroker

Unfamiliarity with the item at auction surely causes some over-bidding. That Pistol here referred to sold for over $1700.

Who pays that much for such an item?

My best guess, especially since the winning bidder only bid once, is that someone saw the action on this auction and, not knowing any better, thought a rare a valuable item was for sale.

The other bidders seemed to be caught up in the "IT'S MINE" mindset.
