Rear toggle pin question

I agree that shooter prices have gone up. A toggle pin that is mismatched does technically make it a mismatch Luger but in the scope of serious collectors (and wannabes) this would only be a dickering point to talk someone down in price. No decent Lugers are being sold for under $500 anymore. I remember all the 'collectors' talking about "common variety" Lugers for $300 about 25 years ago and all complaining that they couldn't find any! Guess what? There still aren't any! Good condition Lugers (mismatches, restored, refinished, etc) are worth around $500 as a good starting price. Really nice ones are going for around a grand. The times have caught up with the old timers and the dreamers.
