Pawn shop woes

Hey guys, check this story out! The other day I found three P08s in a local pawn shop. One was an artilery model with all mismatched numbers selling for $1,800.00, the second one was a 1936 s/42 with a poor finish a mismatched toggle pin and wooden based mag. selling for $800.00, and the third one was a 1937 s/42 with a 96%plus finish but the toggle pin was silver and didn't even have a number on it. This one was selling for $1,400.00. Am I crazy or are these guys way out of line? Wouldn't these guns be considered shooters? If so, how do you tell these guys that what the got are overpriced shooters and still leave the store in one piece? Has anyone of you ever had success reasoning and dealing with shops like these?
