Legit German K98s of any variant are probably worth a grand or more right now. The problem is that people have figured out how to fake them, it takes a real sharp eye to identify humped rifles.
Even some of the less desirable Mausers are bringing big bucks these days. Way more than I'd pay but I guess that's for a different discussion... I'm thinking specifically of the Yugo M48's, those were readily available for a couple hundred bucks, in super nice shape and matching... now try finding one.
I scored a Columbian Mauser recently for $150, it's chambered in 30-06 and is a REALLY nice shooter. Also have a Yugo 24/47. My focus has been mostly on Mosin Nagants and other Russian guns but I sure do like Mausers too.
