Well, the value is only really degraded if the original condition is high or good. A fully restored gun will never rank better than "Very good" on a value scale. As oposed to people thinking they can ask "NIB" or "Excellent" prices for a restored gun. Obviously restoring a "Poor" condition gun is going to raise it's value, but if it is worth it is jsut a matter of economics.
