Does an original fitted case with all the tools or Huey Case with all the accessories add much in terms of value to a best gun?
If it does how to figure the added value?

In my experience unless very well fitted to the gun most auction houses and at many gun shows the gun is removed from the case and sold separately. A case with original label and in decent shape goes for around $600. I don't think you get that much selling the gun and case together.
Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.

I would say an original Maker's oak and leather case with accessories that is original to the gun would add 1K to the price.
I have a Boss imported in 1928 through A&F was sold to a guy in New York that has the address wrote in ink on the outside of the case.
It has the original one piece cleaning rod and original Boss oil pot. The case is in original un-touched condition.
This guy also bought two other Boss guns which a friend of mine owned the 12 gauge at one time. The other was a 20 gauge that was sold at auction in the UK in the past year.
