When the gunshop in Clearwater told me $1,000 for a Gen 1 Glock in mediocre condition with one incorrect magazine, I felt they were asking too much.
This auction:
Puts lie to their claim that one in good condition with the box and accessories is worth two grand.
$1,326 for two correct mags, (mismatched) case, and all accessories. That's a little short of two grand.
But, as with all things, an item is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it and I'm not willing to pay for $1,000 for a Gen 1 when the clones are hovering in the $600 range.
Lots of collectors don't want to admit it, but a clone market DOES affect the price of the real thing.
