Get the camera to an expert like Jim Lager. The VAST majority of WWII Leicas
on the market today are fakes (fakes made from real period Leicas or fakes
from other makes) 

SN lists for proper period cameras are in all the books.

Make sure the internal SN and top number agree

 Look for the standard signs of a serviced camera

Get the help of an expert...make sure of authenticity then worry about price
