Ha ha ha, there's a clown in every crowd! That was a typo -- it was
purchased new for $436, not $36.

I guess I made a mistake in trying to supply a lot of information, at the
risk of making a typo or two. It's no one's business what it sold new for
in May, if they're going to take cheap shots.
But I did say, "all offers considered." I have considered your $72 offer,
but I like your "1000rofit" offer even better -- send the check for $872
and I'll ship the camera out pronto! :-)
