Hi Zorn, I have never owned the P88c but I hear it is a great gun. I've been checking the auction sites and $800.00 seems like a good price. I've seen many of them over $900.00. The reason I know this is because I just purchased a new P88 full size and was looking at prices for the last month. You can get the hi-cap mags for them also, I've seen quite a few places advertise them. So if you decide to purchase the gun and down the road you want more than 10 shots (11 with one in the pipe) you can have 14 shots (15 with one in the pipe). I just bought a couple of hi-caps for the full size gun. Good luck and if you decide to get the gun let me know. Also PM me if you want to know where to get the hi-caps. Eddie.
