I think someone was smoking something before they posted that for sale.

Well, perhaps he amassed a few fakes too.

Should I send him a message asking if they passed the hot pin test?

Actually I believe these may be genuine original grips, but the asking price is astronomical in my opinion. I am old enough that I remember when you would have trouble giving bakelite grips away!

These do appear to be genuine in pretty nice shape. but $899 ??? no way.

But they're for a super duper rare Black Beauty Luger!!

I really do need some of what this guy has been smoking, maybe it will help with the shoulder pain I have. In the meantime check this out, from the same seller.

How do these people have nerve enough to ask those ridiculous prices??? I guess the seller just needs one sucker to bite.
