You all know the saga. Well, the plot thickens (perhaps) so I thought it
a good idea to advise my friends here that the OM4 body in question
_appears_ to be already listed under a different eBay user name. Why do
I believe this?

1. Same location (IL)
2. Very simular looking pictures, different angles but same background
and pixel size (makes one go "hmmm")
3. jpg files for both pictures have simular file names and exactly the
same file headers when opened in a text editor (that kinda proves it for
me).
4. Reported "problem" and descriptions are also simular but worded
differently.

The eBay links are:
http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=237350825 for the
first ad run and
http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=241184988 for the
current ad. Take a look for your self if you're bored ;-)

Seller's eBay user names are: aaasd and 2gabe

I would advise avoiding these seller names as they do appear to me to be
one in the same. Hope this helps someone out there.
