The online auction houses have them priced at 300 -350, bids are 200-300.

I have one that I had spotorized and restocked barrel cut down 6in and it will shoot a 1/2 group at 100yrds. Does the numbers match on the gun if so the price could be higher. When I bought mine I paid 130 for it about 14 yrs ago.

I bought one a few months ago from a guy locally for $150. Gustav, dated 1915, M96B ("B"=threaded muzzle). I'm thinking I got it for a pretty great price. Didn't come with a bayonet or sling, though.

As far as serial numbers, on mine the bolt, bolt parts, receiver, and lower/upper stock match. Just about everything else has a different number. I think I read somewhere that there are over 30 parts on those rifles with serial numbers and finding one with ALL matching is nearly impossible.

Mine is a great shooter. Looks good. There's a guy in Mayfield that has one listed on VCI's classified right now (http://classifieds.vci.net) for $250. I would've given that much for mine.
