<< t's no way to prove you can be trusted, which was another concern of
John's in his posting. If you feel that it's OK to sell like that, then
fine,
you stated so. I'll just never bid on or buy something from you, that's all.

Hi George, maybe this will change your mind.... (unlocks a steel box, unwraps
white silk blanket as the sun breaks through shooting a beam of light upon
which the purples and violets and greens of the multi coating glow on the
massive 128mm front element, the beautiful unmistaken Zuiko design easily
apparent. With the big white lens held high, the crows falls to their knees.
and gasp-"it is here, it is the 350 2.8." This is what they wanted to see.
George, my point is. If I put this lens in your hands you will see it was
NOT just another minor piece in the line. And if you were like 950f the
people on this list I assume, I bet I would detect some drooooooooooooooling
at this point (no drooling from me EVER hit the lens-promise)!
Seems you would try to find out more about me or bid on it even using escrow
if really interested..
If this was the lens you wanted - and you know that they don't come around
very often (I may be new to the list but I have been all around Olympus gear
for almost 25 years) I would be hearing from you.
If you are going to turn your nose up on me and miss out on chance to have
this lens I think that you either aren't interested or overly paranoid.
With cheapy airfares I doubt anyone in the lower 48 can't fly here for more
than a few hundred dollars tops (within a few weeks lets say) if they are
really serious about the goods. I would welcome and understand this.
I would meet them at the airport or whatever to personally show the lens or
take a couple of days and allow some shooting (prospective buyers in warmer
climates - maybe Hawaii etc... maybe I can bring the lens to you.....)
Again George, maybe you missed my letter before about being involved in an
auction or two when it ended while I was bidding. I understand people may
have a legitimate reason to stop an auction-food, rent, surgery, etc... eBay
will not launch an investigation to find out that their cut went into a
seller's coffin bill-looks bad.
I even give speeders weaving along crazily on the road the benefit of the
doubt, when you have to go you have to GO.......
