Mauser Banner Sold at Auction: Thoughts?

Doubs · 10-14-2020, 05:30 PM

The Mauser Banner Luger linked below was sold at auction yesterday. On top of the 18% markup may be another 3% if a CC was used. That could total $3025.

In the same auction there were two DWM Lugers (1917 & 1918) that sold for $1400 and $1100 respectively and a nickel plated 1936 Mauser for $700 plus markup.

Considering condition, etc. of the Mauser Banner Luger, what do you think of the price paid?

I think the $2500 was a decent price - its the commission that likely surprises people later, it really adds up and some are 21-23% !
