What am I missing ??

I was watching this and thought for a couple of hundred it might be good as a parts gun and I wanted the grips; but someone obviously wants it a whole lot more.

Is this all getting a little silly, or am I missing the point ? Bear in mind I've never paid less than the full value + 10% for a Luger, and even I've got sticker shock on this one.

I never thought it, but at this rate I'll be able to retire on the proceeds of my reblued artillery in 10 years

Wow! $505! I wouldn't pay any more than $250-300. It would be worth more if it was parted out on e-bay. Maybe that's the idea!
