Well, folks, the Zuiko 35/2.8 shift lens closed at US$504.00 on e-Bay 
earlier today.  The reserve wasn't met (wonder what it was?):

Anyway, we have a TIE for the entry closest to the closing price.  Both 
Tom Scales and Gary Reese guessed US$499.00 or only US$5.00 from 
the closing price.  Because Tom placed his entry first, within minutes of 
the contest opening, Tom wins the roll of film of his choice (maximum 
value = US$7.00).

Congratulations, Tom!  And, sorry 'bout that, Gary...  better luck in 
being a bit quicker, next time!

Thanks to everyone who entered!  As per the unwritten contest rules, it's 
now Tom's turn to host the next contest (and, of course, put-up the 
prize roll of film).  I look forward to your announcing the next contest, 
Tom.

Regards,

Chris
