[OM] Things have GOT to go

Well, it's time to really start working on the selling side of buying and
selling.  As much as I'd like to keep each and every piece that I own,
that's just not possible.  I keep reading that I should offer them to list
members first, so here goes.

Everything is on the master inventory page at www.zuikoholic.com   That site
will be iffy over the next couple of weeks as I'm doing a changeover to the
new address, but the old one should always work www.scales.tzo.com/olympus

There are prices (but not for list members) on the master inventory pages
and links to more detail and to pictures.  You can click on the picture to
get a full size, detailed version.  If there are not pictures yet, it
usually means I don't have the item yet.

Almost nothing is off-limits, but I'm going to be tougher to negotiate down
on the items I really like (honesty seems appropriate). The prices are set
at 'well below KEH' and around mid-point or above on ebay (Thanks Skip!).
These are the prices for 'non-listers', so I have a little room if you email
and mention you're a lister. I know exactly what I have invested in each
piece and I'm not trying to make a big profit on listers, just recover my
investment and a little more to pay for the aggrevation.

Hope this was appropriate, but I have an awful lot of nice equipment, almost
all in the excellent to excellent plus range and I think I can be fair.
Even the gems can be bought (18, 300), but, of course, they're pricey.

Examples:

Bodies:  OM-2SP
             OM-1n
             OM-G            (surprisingly nice back-up bodies - full OM-2
function, including manual)

I'll also, soon, have an OM-4 and OM-4T back from CLA. Probably want to keep
one and sell one.  I've also got a 3 and a 3T coming in, same thing keep one
and sell one.

Lenses:

18 3.5
24 2
24 2.8
28 2
28 2.8
35 2
50 1.4
50 1.8
35-70 4
85 2
100 2.8
135 2.8
135 3.5
300 4.5 (simply beautiful with tripod mount)

Want to keep representative samples at each focal length, but don't need
both.

Other things:

F280
Motor Drive 1 with M.18 Control Grip

Other things too, but these seemed like the 'stars' to mention.

Hope this was OK.  Everyone seems to enjoy my 'antics' (i.e. purchases) and
thought I'd spread the wealth to the group.

Tom
