Remember that there are other factors other than just the exchange rate
variation, most of the Oly stuff I see for sale in the US is considerably
more expensive than what I could buy it for in Oz (in a camera store).  I
think the effect of ebay in influencing prices is currently greater in the
US than in Oz, but can we be far behind ?  Unfortunately the availability of
Oly stuff here doesn't seem to be as good as the US, e.g. I have *never*
seen a 90mm f2, a 40mm f2 and have only seen 1 16mm f3.5 used (I bought
that).

What sort of condition ?  Seems comparable with what I have seen them for in
Melbourne.  I know of a LNIB one for sale at $AU895.
