That's because you don't get it. Regardless of what you think of romantic appeal, everything with regards to a firearm's value is based on condition above all else. I have no problem with people doing whatever they want with their own property but if they are about to do something irreversible to a firearm that will have a huge impact on its value, they should do so with full disclosure. The world is already littered with polished out and reblued Colt single actions so this is a well worn trail. I'm surprised that anyone would be so clueless about it.
Opinions aside, what you posted originally is flat out wrong.
"A no finish gun is worth about the same as a refinished gun."
Because this is 100% true.
"After all everyone should have the ability to turn a $2500+- Pistol into a $1000 one."
