I was at the Sharonville OH gunshow today and saw what was either the sneakiest 84yr old ever or a very rare firearm. Guy strolled up to the table and has an old leather holster. He pulls out a beautiful nickel plated german luger. He goes on to tell the story of taking it from a german officer that he killed in 1944 and has had it since, never shot it. It is nearly flawless with checkered wood grips and a very nice leather holster. All original german markings including swastika and no import or other markings. After that I witness a couple of people offer him anywhere from $400 to $700 for the piece. He didn't have any idea of the value and his logic was that he's 84 and could use the money more than the old gun. Gladly he turned down all offers and I caught up with him later. I told him to seek out a reputable collector or expert to get a decent value. I gave my advice that until he learns it's value from someone not trying to buy it, not to sell it for any amount of money.
