List price on new 3.5s and 2s is so high that even discounted most people
will look extensively for "used" first.  List price on the 3.5 used to be
$640, f2:  $874, 90mm f2: $1419.  This was before price "adjustments" made
over a year ago.

These are US$ .. I've seen a 90mm / f2 quoted new unused, still in the shrink wrap from an official Olympus dealer for less than Cdn$1419. Earlier this year I bought a brand new mc 50 / 1.8 for Cdn$100 from an official Olympus dealer.

Somewhere, somehow there is a bit too much of a mark up south of the 49th parallel.
