I've come across a 1918 Erfurt PO8 for sale and I'm trying to evaluate the approximate value. The seller is asking $2,000 for it. I'm not new to this forum since many years ago a number of you helped me learn about an LP08 that I inherited. However, I am not up to speed with today's values. It appears (from the exterior) to be all matching except for the magazine, which appears to be an unnumbered (perhaps a faint number was once there?) Erfurt magazine. It appears to be in very good condition (95%?) but with very little straw. The bore appears to be to excellent. There is no import mark. The seller allowed me to snap a few photos for the purpose of doing research and seeking advice. They are not the greatest. What kind of range are we realistically talking about? I was just looking at Simpson LTD and the range of prices seems wide. Thanks for any insight you can give.
