To my eyes the wood does not match the condition and looks of the metal. I have seen too many Ithacas with what I strongly suspect is swapped wood form another gun. One thing most NIDs are good about is having stocks with modern dimensions. That stock has a lot of drop, or it appears too from the photos. A ugly stock on a high condition is a killer to me. It needs to all flow to geather and this one just does not look like the wood belongs on the gun. Metal "pristine" and wood that looks plain and tired.
Pet peeve of mine on this listing and many other like it. Photos out of focus and too dark are just about useless. You could have ten cracks on that stock and not see them in those photos. I have bought too many guns on the net and sent many of them back to put up with pictures that suck. If you want me to bid more than a grand then take pictures that do not look like they came out of a cheap camera phone. I hate paying freight both ways just because you failed to take decent pictures.
