German factory-made, complete, and in very good condition. Anyone know the market nowadays?

I'd say $75 or so, assuming it includes latches, hardware, and windlace.
Bare windows listed at $60 here:

That sounds reasonable. Lots of crazy prices out there, so I'll just bide my time and wait for the right deal to come along. Thanks.

IIRC, paid around $125 a side for couple pop-outs a year or so ago. These were OG ones w/ all hardware included and in excellent shape - no scratches on glass and trim, no corrosion or pitting on the latches, etc. You can probably find them cheaper if you’re patient and willing to accept a few blemishes.

Yeah, I'd be willing to go that high for some of that quality. Were you actually able to source those here in Wichita?

No, I seem to remember getting them from a guy in WA, via classified ad here on the Samba.

However, you might want to go check with local Wichita vendor Nathan Ebersole at “VW Parts Unlimited” on 3110 S. Southeast Blvd. (K15). He carries a lot of used parts, and may currently have some pop-outs available that are in good shape.

Got these at auction for $8 bucks each.

All glass is fine, and I will cherry pick to create the two best looking trim and parts.

Keep your eyes peeled and there are deals to be had.

Nice deal on those auction pop outs. I bought a pair at the pick and pull in va beach a few months ago for 30 each in good shape with all mounting hardware and inside weatherstrip which I thought was a good deal.
