About to make a offer on this pistol, in very good condition with all matching numbers, how much is that worth?

I don't know the market for this gun; perhaps a look at Gun Broker would give an idea. In reality, it is worth what you are willing to pay for it and I might go as high as 500 if it is very nice. Good luck, it is a great gun.
To paraphrase Ronald Reagan, the trouble with many shooting experts is not that they're ignorant; its just that they know so much that isn't so.
I paid $325 for one last October in great shape, with a holster.
About 10 years ago or so I had the opportunity to buy a bunch of guns before they went to an auction place. I dickered over $50 on one and ended up not getting it. To this day I still kick myself for not getting it. Guess what I am saying if you like what you are buying, don't let a few dollars get in the way. I am not talking about taking food money to pay for it but a few bucks over a lot of years isn't much. Good luck
My book is 'Gun Trader's Guide' Thirty-Ninth Edition.
It lists a Mauser 'Pocket Model 1914' for: $691 NIB $485 EX $314 Gd.

Let us know if you get it. If your deal falls through, let us know. Some one here would pounce upon it.

Pictures, or it didn't happen.

When I got My 1914 It was back in 2006. It was at an online & in person estate auction; I believe in Ohio!
There were 2 1914 in the lots! One was "very good" and one was listed as "good" The internet auction at that time was kind of hit or miss! the connection was terrible with a lot of lag time! The auction was to be over at Midnight however it was going slow, even though I was sleepy eyed tired I hung in there By 1:30 am I noticed they were speeding things up & Items were being move fast! As luck would have it the "good" & last 1914 was near the end and it came up so quick I just had enough time to type in $152 and hit the send button Had no Idea what happened because the connection quit! the next day I got an email and it said I won the item
