Somewhere in between those two numbers. I got this one home to me in the safe for under $2K, which is not inexpensive, but considering the engraver's time and effort, along with the creativity and the inlays, I thought it was a bargain. It is significantly cheaper than finding the right gun for an engraving project, selecting an engraver, envisioning the project with the engraver, commissioning him/her to cut the piece, getting it re-blued and then waiting the 6-16 months for it to be completed...

Here's a link to a thread for an engraved gun that I have in process with one of my engraver friends: In Process... A Pre-27 357 Engraved Masterpiece in the Making [UPDATED 12/22]
