I just paid $1000 for a pretty rough GH with little finish, but some on the barrels. Nice bore, wood about like yours full and full. I have shot it and the guns shoots great and it hits.
I see GH's for $1000 on up and seldom do I see one that is anything very nice for under a grand. So, yeah you'll be into the gun for a bit more than it is worth...maybe but you'll have a nice gun. I see them going for $3K all of the time and many do not look much better than yours.
I don't fret too much about money when I buy a Parker. Sure you might pay too much, but you'll have a Parker and that is worth a premium. I would check the barrel thickness. You want a gun that you can shoot with confidence.
Some people buy Parkers for show. I buy mine for blow, so shootability is my first consideration.
