Need some advice

Do as my Dad always says, WAIT...

That is hard to do, but almost everything will come up for sale eventually at a better price (although the price quoted you is a bit high, not unbelievable, $600 is better, $550 or 500 is best).

Look on-line (get a FFL3 C&R permit), go to gun shows, buy Luger Books, esp Jan Still's on Third Reich Lugers, has many pictures and will answer most questions you might have.

Search this forum, many pictures and info is here.

Decide if you want a shooter or a collectable. If a shooter, than try to buy one that is all matching and rougher shape, it will have a bit more value that way.
